Résumé

The optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) can predict elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) but it is not known whether diagnostic characteristics differ between men and women. This observational study was performed at the Karolinska University Hospital in Sweden to assess sex differences in diagnostic accuracy for ONSD. We included 139 patients (65 women), unconscious and/or sedated, with invasive ICP monitoring. Commonly used ONSD derived measurements and associated ICP measurements were collected. Linear regression analyses were performed with ICP as dependent variable and ONSD as independent variable. Area under the receiver operator characteristics curve (AUROC) analyses were performed with a threshold for elevated ICP ≥ 20 mmHg. Analyses were stratified by sex. Optimal cut-offs and diagnostic characteristics were estimated. The ONSD was associated with ICP in women. The AUROCs in women ranged from 0.70 to 0.83. In men, the ONSD was not associated with ICP and none of the AUROCs were significantly larger than 0.5. This study suggests that ONSD is a useful predictor of ICP in women but may not be so in men. If this finding is verified in further studies, this would call for a re-evaluation of the usage and interpretation of ONSD to estimate ICP.
