Claim 8:
9. A system for non-invasive management and monitoring of intracranial pressure, wherein the system comprises:
a. a detection device comprising a transducer of variation, an environmental sensor comprising a temperature sensor, and at least one of a gyroscope and an accelerometer configured to be positioned on a user's head for detecting an analog signal from a skull volumetric variation, wherein the skull volumetric variation is positive or negative and causing a displacement on the transducer of variation;
b. a receiver communicating with the detection device and receiving the detected analog signal, wherein the detected analog signal represents measurements of skull volumetric variation;
c. a processor interfaced with the receiver, wherein the processor is configured to convert the detected analog signal to a digital signal and identify a trigger event from the digital signal, wherein an individual measurement in the analog signal is represented by a sequence of bits in the digital signal; and
d. a transmitter interfaced with the processor, wherein the transmitter is configured to transmit the entire sequence of bits for a given measurement in the digital signal to a pre-configured receiver upon identifying the trigger event and to transmit only a subset of least significant bits from a sequence of bits for subsequent measurements in the digital signal until another trigger event is identified, wherein the transmitter and the pre-configured receiver communicate wirelessly.
