New headband could replace Needle-Based brain pressure monitoring
NCT ID NCT06453733
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is testing a new device called Crainio that uses infrared light to measure pressure inside the skull without needing to insert a probe into the brain. Researchers will enroll 54 adults with traumatic brain injury who already require standard invasive monitoring. The goal is to see if the device can accurately detect dangerously high brain pressure (above 20 mmHg) at least 90% of the time.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Crainio device (non-invasive infrared sensor for intracranial pressure monitoring)
What this could lead to
If successful, this device could provide a safe, non-invasive way to monitor brain pressure in traumatic brain injury patients, reducing the need for invasive procedures.
What could go wrong
This is an early feasibility study with only 54 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The device is still being developed and may not achieve the desired accuracy.
