Abstract
Increased intracranial pressure syndrome (IIPS) is a condition in which intracranial pressure (ICP) rises above the upper limit of normal for age, leading to the development of symptoms and signs. Under normal conditions, the average ICP is 1.5-6 mmHg in infants, 3-7 mmHg in children, and 5-15 mmHg in adults. IIPS is defined as ICP remaining above 20 mmHg for more than 5 minutes. ICP may increase in the presence of increased blood, cerebrospinal opinion of the physician.
