ABSTRACT:
An intercranial pressure sensor assembly has a sensor at one end of an electrical cable. At its other end, the cable has a low profile coupling with annular contact members spaced axially along its length. A guide of a plastics material has an attachment with a tapering surface at one end from which extends a flexible lead. The guide is screwed to the coupling by means of an internal thread on the attachment and is used to pull the cable beneath tissue on the scalp. After the sensor is correctly positioned, the guide is removed and the coupling can be connected to a monitor.
