Abstrakt: Background: The observation of tympanic membrane displacement (TMD) opens up the possibility of indirect intracranial pressure (ICP) estimation. In this study, we applied a phase-based video motion magnification (VMM) algorithm to reveal spontaneous pulse TMD waveforms (spTMD) and compare them with invasively measured ICP in patients with intracranial pathologies.
Methods: Nine adults (six traumatic brain injury and three aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage; median age 44 (29-53) years admitted to the intensive care unit of Wroclaw Medical University between October 2021 and October 2022 with implanted ICP sensors were included in this retrospective study. Video recordings of the tympanic membrane were performed using a portable otoscope with a video camera and analysed by a custom-written VMM algorithm. ICP was monitored using intraparenchymal sensors and arterial blood pressure (ABP) was measured in the radial arterial lines. ICP, ABP, and spTMD videos were captured simultaneously. The pulse amplitudes of ICP (Amp_ICP), ABP (Amp_ABP) and spTMD (Amp_spTMD) were estimated using fast Fourier transform within the heart rate (HR)-related frequency range.
Results: Amp_spTMD was significantly correlated with mean ICP (r S  = 0.73; p = 0.025) and with Amp_ICP (r S  = 0.88; p = 0.002). Age was not a significant moderator of this association. There were no significant relationships between Amp_spTMD and either mean ABP, HR, or Amp_ABP.
Conclusions: The study suggests that Amp_spTMD increases with the increase in mean ICP and Amp_ICP. Estimation of Amp_spTMD using the VMM algorithm has the potential to allow for non-invasive detection of the risk of elevated ICP; however, further investigation in a larger group of patients is required.
