  • Title: Fluctuating intracranial hypertension due to Cheyne-Stokes respiration.
    Author: Marsh ML, Aidinis SJ, Shapiro HM.
    Journal: Anesth Analg; 1977; 56(2):216-18. PubMed ID: 557916.
    Abstract:
    Cyclically fluctuating intracranial pressure (ICP) with periodic breathing was first described by Nils Lundberg in 1960. While Cheyne-Stokes respiration (CSR) frequently accompanies severe cerebrovascular accidents, it is not commonly appreciated that cycles of severe intracranial hypertension can complicate this abnormal ventilation pattern. We recently treated a patient with a hemorrhagic stroke in whom episodes of elevated ICP were synchronously associated with CSR.
