Embodiment Construction
[0024] In normal conditions the CSF is produced in the chorioid plexus in the ventricles. It flows through the ventricles, aqueduct and basal cisterns over the cerebral surface to the arachnoid villi, from where the CSF is absorbed into the sagittal sinus.
[0025] From measurements in 333 patients (Brgesen and Gjerris 1987) and 52 normal humans (Albeck, Brgesen et al. (submitted for publication)) it has been possible to establish the relationship between CSF production rate (FR), intracranial pressure (ICP), pressure in the sagittal sinus (Pss) and the resistance to outflow of CSF (Rout):
ICP=FR*Rout+Pss
[0026] The relation between the intracranial pressure and the formation rate is linear, and the production rate measured was found to be 0.3 ml / min. (Brgesen and Gjerris 1989).
[0027] The detailed knowledge on CSF-dynamics, obtained in the laboratories at the Department of Neurosurgery, Rigshospitalet, Copenhagen, Denmark, has provided the necessary data which could make it possible ...
