Abstract: According to an aspect, there is provided a method for measuring the intracranial pressure, ICP, in a subject, the method comprising detecting whether spontaneous retinal venous pulsations, SRVPs, are occurring in an eye of the subject as the orientation of the head of the subject changes; identifying the orientation of the head of the subject at which SRVPs start to occur or stop occurring; and using the identified orientation of the head of the subject at which SRVPs start to occur or stop occurring to determine the ICP in the subject.

Abstract: According to an aspect there is provided a method of assessing the severity of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, COPD, in a subject, the method comprising determining measurements of the breathing rate of the subject, the activity level of the subject, a measure of the respiratory effort of the subject and a measure of the severity or intensity of coughing by the subject; and combining the measurements of the breathing rate, the activity level, the measure of the respiratory effort and the measure of the severity or intensity of coughing to determine a score representing the severity of COPD in the subject.
