Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is the second major stroke type, with high incidence, high disability rate, and high mortality. At present, there is no effective and reliable treatment for ICH. As a result, most patients have a poor prognosis. Minimally invasive surgery (MIS) is the fastest treatment method to remove hematoma, which is characterized by less trauma and easy operation. Some studies have confirmed the safety of MIS, but there are still no reports showing that it can significantly improve the functional outcome of ICH patients. Intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring is considered to be an important part of successful treatment in traumatic brain diseases. By monitoring ICP in real time, keeping stable ICP could help patients with craniocerebral injury get a good prognosis. In the course of MIS treatment of ICH patients, keeping ICP stable may also promote patient recovery. In this review, we will take ICP monitoring as the starting point for an in-depth discussion.
