FIG. 2.

The diagram of sensor locations (A) used in the cadaver rat experiments. The rightmost inset shows the brain remains intact after the experiments. Representative pressure profiles of the 190 kPa group (B), and average peak overpressures recorded by side-on, nose (reflected pressure), brain, and lungs pressure sensors (C) are presented (no statistically significant differences are noted for 190 and 230 kPa groups (marked with ampersand)). There are no statistical differences between intracranial pressure (ICP) impulse of 230 kPa group (100% survival, Table 1) and ICP impulses of the two lethal groups (190 and 250 kPa) (D).
