The Langfitt’s elastance curve superimposed with the changes in the ICP pulse morphology. ICP safety values may change between individuals, otherwise, changes in ICP pulse morphology are predictors of buffering reserve exhaustion, with considerations disclosed here also dependent on offense intensity and duration (adapted from Nucci et al. [3])
