Intracranial pressure changes during prone positioning. Each point represents a patient, in blue patients who did not experience intracranial hypertension (IH) during prone positioning (PP) and in red patients who did. a ICP changes over the PP session; solid lines indicate the median intracranial pressure (ICP) values of each group. b ICP changes 1 h after the PP onset according to the initial ICP before PP; when the initial ICP was below 17.5 mmHg and the ICP did not increase PP took place without IH (green lines), whereas an ICP above 17.5 mmHg or an ICP elevation over 10 mmHg were predictive of IH
