Summary
Results of measurementsin vivo of intracranial pressure obtained with a new telemetric epidural pressure transducer are described. The relations of epidural pressure to ventricular fluid pressure are studied in acute experiments and found to be linear, but variable. The functioning of 18 transducers was studied over many months of implantation.
