Summary

This study will check if a non-invasive device can accurately detect high pressure inside the skull in 300 adults with traumatic brain injury or stroke. The device uses a sensor placed on the head to measure brain pressure and pulse waves. If successful, it could help doctors make faster decisions and reduce the need for invasive tests in emergency rooms.

If the legal representative is not present at the time of admission or initial care, consent may be obtained retrospectively. Exclusion Criteria Individuals with brain lesions of other etiologies, such as previous TBI and/or stroke, neoplasms, infections, sepsis, arteriovenous malformation, intoxication, or illicit drug use.
