This document discusses various demand management strategies that could be implemented in the Lower Hunter region of New South Wales to balance water supply and demand. It introduces three potential strategies: Water Wise Rules, which are permanent water conservation measures; drought restrictions, which are temporary measures put in place during droughts; and voluntary water use targets, which may be used during extreme drought in addition to restrictions. Water Wise Rules involve simple actions to conserve water every day, similar to rules already in place in other parts of NSW. Drought restrictions and voluntary targets aim to slow the drop in water storage levels during times of drought. Community support is seen as critical for any demand management approach.

This presentation delves into the latest advancements in non-invasive intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring techniques, specifically tailored for neurosurgeons. It covers the importance of ICP monitoring in clinical practice, explores various non-invasive methods, and discusses their accuracy, reliability, and clinical applications. Attendees will gain insights into the benefits of non-invasive approaches over traditional invasive methods, including reduced risk of complications and improved patient outcomes. This comprehensive overview is designed to enhance the knowledge and skills of neurosurgeons in managing patients with neurological conditions.
Invasive systems are commonly used for monitoring intracranial pressure (ICP) in traumatic brain injury (TBI) and are considered the gold standard. The availability of invasive ICP monitoring is heterogeneous, and in low- and middle-income settings, these systems are not routinely employed due to high cost or limited accessibility. The aim of this presentation is to develop recommendations to guide monitoring and ICP-driven therapies in TBI using non-invasive ICP (nICP) systems.
