Stable tissue oxygen cerebral perfusion pressure (stoCPP): Proof of concept for a novel method for the assessment of optimum cerebral perfusion pressure in severe traumatic brain injury

J Clin Monit ComputPublished Retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data

Authors' conclusion

stoCPP was defined in all patients from raw unfiltered data using Bayesian-optimised parameters and per-subject calibrated r² thresholds, and demonstrated close correspondence with CPPopt.

Study context

Population
Patients with severe TBI enrolled in the BONANZA-GT trial with continuous MAP, intracranial pressure (ICP), cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) and PbtO₂ monitoring
Participants

Exposure
stoCPP range vs CPPopt
Outcome
stoCPP generation and agreement with CPPopt
Methodological detailsproof-of-concept study, Bayesian-optimised algorithm parameters, per-subject block-shuffle calibrated r² thresholds
  • Proof-of-concept study
  • Bayesian-optimised algorithm parameters
