For example, if tumor is cause the increase in the ICP, surgery is done to remove the tumor. Proper oxygen supply is provide to the brain which brings the carbon dioxide down to normal level and causes the pH to become alkalotic. Craniotomy, where bone flap is removed and then replaced to relieve sudden rise in ICP. Drainage of ventricles or subdural hematoma are other option for decompression. As for medication, three different type of medications are administered osmotic diuretics, corticosteroids, and anticonvulsants. Diuretics are given to take out water from the brain tissue. Corticosteroids help in dealing head-injuries, and anticonvulsants are given to prevent
