Background: Head injury causes temporary or permanent damage to the brain. The incidence and mortality of head injuries is very high worldwide, so fast appropriate treatment needed. Glasgow Coma Scale Revised Trauma Score are easy use can assess head-injured patients. Objective: To analyze comparison in assessing Methods: This research a systematic review study using PRISMA approach. Inclusion ...

Introduction: Head injury is one of the most critical conditions and has a serious neurological outcome if not treated promptly. Effective initial assessment timely intervention ensures favourable outcome. To achieve this, many scoring systems have been devised over years which Glasgow coma scale (GCS) widely used but it does few drawbacks. A newer scale, FOUR score (Full Outline UnResponsivene...

Background Acute encephalitis syndrome (AES) is a common cause of coma in Nepali children. The Glasgow coma scale (GCS) is used to assess the level of coma in these patients and predict outcome. Alternative coma scales may have better inter-rater reliability and prognostic value in encephalitis in Nepali children, but this has not been studied. The Adelaide coma scale (ACS), Blantyre coma scale...

A retrospective study of 100 patients with spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage was carried out, to identify clinical factors which have a predictive value for outcome. Numerical equivalents for the admission level of consciousness (the Glasgow Coma Scale), ventricular rupture, partial pressure of oxygen in the blood, the electrocardiogram, clot location, and clot size were combined into equat...

OBJECTIVE to determine predictive factors for prognosis of decompressive craniectomy in patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI), describing epidemiological findings and the major complications of this procedure. METHODS we conducted a retrospective study based on analysis of clinical and neurological outcome, using the extended Glasgow outcome in 56 consecutive patients diagnosed wi...

objectives we aim to evaluate the role of glibenclamide on the short-term outcome of patients with dai due to moderate to severe tbi. patients and methods in this controlled randomized clinical trial, 40 patients with moderate to severe tbi were assigned to glibenclamide (n = 20) and control (n = 20) groups. six hours after admission the intervention group received 1.25 mg glibenclamide every 1...
