Background: Outcome in patient with EDH depends on various factors like GCS at presentation, Volume of hematoma, time of intervention, age, location of hematoma, etc. This study was carried out to find out correlation (if any) between outcome and various factors affecting it. Aim and objectives of this study were to study outcome of patients with traumatic EDH in terms of poor outcome (GOS score 1,2,3), Good outcome (GOS Score 4,5)Methods: This study was carried out in 91 patients having positive CT Head for EDH. Follow up was done every monthly up to 3 months. GOS was recorded at each follow up. Results: Road traffic accident was the most common mode of trauma. 16 patients were operated. Four patients died immediately after diagnosis of traumatic EDH, before doing any intervention. One patient died on 1st post-operative day. After one month, two patients were lost to follow up, 80 patients had GOS 5, four patients had GOS 4. At 2nd and 3rd month, 83 patients had GOS 5, one patient had GOS 4. 17 patients had GCS 3-8, among them, 11 patients had GOS 5, one patient had GOS 4 and five patients died (GOS 1). 15 patients had GCS 9-12, among them, 15 patients had GOS 5. 57 patients had GCS 13-15, among them, 54 patients had GOS 5. 69 patients had EDH volume <30 ml and all patients had GOS 5. 20 patients had EDH volume ≥30 ml, among them, 14 patients had GOS 5, one patient had GOS 4 and five patients died. Conclusions: GOS in EDH patient is affected by GCS and EDH volume at presentation. Lower GCS and larger EDH volume have poor outcome. Surgical intervention in larger EDH volume improves outcome.

Cedera kepala merupakan penyebab kematian terbanyak dari keseluruhan angka kematian yang diakibatkan trauma. Epidural Hematoma (EDH) merupakan jenis yang paling banyak menjadi perhatian para klinisi dan peneliti karena frekwensi kejadiannya yang tinggi. Operasi EDH dianjurkan dilakukan sesegera mungkin setelah diagnosis ditegakkan. Operasi yang dilakukan sebelum waktu 4 jam, memberikan hasil perbaikan yang bermakna. Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) dan waktu prehospital merupakan faktor terbesar yang mempengaruhi prognosa penderita EDH. Penilaian outcome suatu tindakan operasi dapat dinilai dengan Glassgow outcome scale (GOS). Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menilai hubungan GSC dengan GOS berdasarkan lama waktu tunggu operasi pada pasien EDH di Instalasi Gawat Darurat RSUP Dr.M.Djamil Padang. Pada sampel dilakukan penilaian GCS dan GOS. Dari 10 sampel penelitian didapatkan penderita dengan jenis kelamin terbanyak laki-laki (60%), usia tertinggi 35-45 tahun (60%), GCS awal 9-12 (70 %), lama waktu tunggu terbanyak > 4 jam (80 %), skor GOS terbanyak adalah 4 (80%). Tidak terdapat hubungan yang bermakna antara GCS saat awal masuk dengan nilai GOS (p>0,05), tetapi terdapat hubungan yang bermakna antara lama waktu tunggu setelah cedera kepala sampai dilakukan operasi dengan GOS (p<0,05).

Full textAbstract:
Introduction: Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and the pupillary response are the key indicators of the severity of traumatic brain injury (TBI). Glasgow coma scale- Pupil reactivity (GCS-P) score is a tool to incorporate pupil reactivity and GCS into a simple single index. The main aim of this study was to compare GCS and GCS- P scores in predicting mortality in TBI patients in our institution. Materials and Methods: All patients admitted to Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital (TUTH) with moderate to severe head injury from May 2018 to April 2019 were included in the study. Both GCS and GCS- P scores were recorded separately at admission. Outcome was measured with Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) at the time of discharge and in three months. Diagnostic accuracy of both these scoring systems were calculated using receiver-operating characteristics (ROC) curve, and correlation between them was estimated by using Pearson correlation coefficient. Results: Out of 136 patients enrolled, 98 patients had favorable outcome, 38 patients had unfavorable outcome at discharge. The Pearson correlation coefficient between GCS and GOS at discharge was 0.721 and GCS-P and GOS was 0.740 showing a good correlation between the GCS and GOS and GCS-P and GOS. The areas under ROC curve for GCS for prediction of mortality was 0.856 (95% CI; p<0.001) and for GCS-P is 0.871(95%CI;p<0.001) suggesting good discriminatory ability of both models. However, on statistical analysis, the discriminatory ability of GCS-P was not superior to GCS for mortality. Conclusion: GCS-P is as good as but not superior to GCS in predicting mortality in traumatic brain injury patients.

BACKGROUND: The Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has forced the health workforce to take mitigative measures such as physical distancing, screening, personal protective equipment donning, and confinement on patient care. We aimed to study the outcome of acute stroke patients with suspected, probable, or confirmed COVID-19 in a tertiary referral hospital in Indonesia during the first year of COVID-19 pandemic.METHODS: This was a retrospective study examining all medical records of adult patients suffering from acute stroke with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 who were admitted to R.D. Kandou Hospital, Manado, Indonesia, between March 2020 to March 2021. Clinical and laboratory parameters were compared between subjects with poor and good outcomes based on Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS), divided into poor outcome (GOS 1-3) and good outcome (GOS 4-5).RESULTS: Fourty-six eligible subjects were enrolled in the study. Based on the GOS, 36 subjects (78.3%) were admitted to the hospital with poor prognosis. On admission, the median Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) was 11, breathlessness was found in 54.3% of subjects, fever was found in only 15 subjects (32.6%), and the lowest oxygen saturation on admission 95%. We found that GCS significantly related to outcome after controlled for other factors using the logistic regression method (p=0.03; 95% CI=1.08-4.78).CONCLUSION: Lower GCS can be used to predict poor outcome in acute stroke patients with COVID-19.KEYWORDS: COVID-19, acute stroke, Glasgow Coma Scale, outcome, Indonesia

Full textAbstract:
Background: Cerebral toxoplasmosis is a Toxoplasma gondii infection affecting the brain. Assessment of the functional outcome after treatment is needed as an evaluation for therapeutic management. One of the instruments used is the Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS). This study aimed to assess the functional outcome of cerebral toxoplasmosis patients using GOS. Methods: A Cross-sectional descriptive study with total sampling method was conducted. Medical records were retrieved from patients with cerebral toxoplasmosis registered at the Department of Neurology, Dr. Hasan Sadikin General Hospital, Bandung during year 2017–2019. Inclusion criteria were patients with cerebral toxoplasmosis aged >18 years and had a positive HIV serological test. The GOS was assessed and presented in frequency, using Microsoft Excel and SPSS software ver. 25.0. Results: Of 87 patients, 68% had somnolent on admission to the hospital, 51% had hemiparesis/hemiplegia, and 76% had GOS 3, indicating severe disability. Almost one third (28%) of patients died during hospitalization with non-neurological complications as the most common cause of death (63%). On discharge from the hospital, 82% of the survivors were fully alert, 40% had hemiparesis/hemiplegia, and 33% had GOS 4 (mild disability). Conclusions: Most of the cerebral toxoplasmosis patients come to the hospital with severe disability. During the treatment, one third of patients died, and those who survived had mild disability. GOS has improved after hospitalization, suggesting that GOS is useful for assessment of therapeutic management.

Objectives: This case-series was aimed to determine the surgical outcome of brain abscess after a single burr hole aspiration technique in terms of the Glasgow outcome scale (GOS).
 Material & Methods: 100 cases were taken in the study with brain abscess. The favourable outcome included those patients with postoperative GOS of 4 or 5, at discharge and one month postoperatively whereas unfavourable outcome included patients with postoperative GOS of less than 4, at discharge and one month postoperatively.
 Results: Of the 100 patients included, there were 72 (72%) males and 28 (28%) females. The overall mean diameter of the abscess was 6.01 cm ± 1.90. Mean GOS was 2.95 ± 0.86 while mean GOS 3.79 ± 1.18. In this study 75% (n=75) patients presented with a GCS of 12 or less. Among these patients, 2 patients presented with a GCS of 5, 6 patients with a GCS of 7, 9 with GCS 8, 11 with GCS 9, 18 with GCS 10, 15 with GCS 11 and 14 patients presented with a GCS of 12. A favourable outcome was observed in 73 (73%) patients (GOS = 4 and 5), while 27 (27%) were in the unfavourable outcome group.
 Conclusion: Although most of the patients present with a good neurological state, those who present with lower GCS are particularly prone to the poor postoperative outcome and higher mortality. The size of the brain abscess is also an important predictor of the postoperative outcome. The overall outcome for brain abscess aspiration was good.

Background: The present study aims to describe the severity of injury [Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS)] and outcome of patients [Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS)] who presented to our hospital with TBI and factors which affect the clinical outcome.Subjects and Methods:All patients, aged equal to or more than 18 years, presenting to the Emergency Department of our hospital due to head trauma during the study period were examined and assessed using GCS at the time of admission, and GOS at the time of discharge.Results:The most common mode of injury was road traffic accident (48%). At the time of admission, 47% had GCS of 13 to 15, 37% had GCS of 9 to 12 and 16% had GCS of 3 to 8. At the time of discharge, we found that 18 patients had GOS of 1, no patient had GOS of 2, 14 patients had GOS Of 3, 28 had GOS of 4 and 29 had GOS of 5. We found that age of the patients was significantly associated with the GOS severity (p value <0.05). Furthermore, GCS at admission was found to be significantly associated with GOS at discharge (p value <0.01). Midline shift on CT head, effaced basal cistern, and presence of subarachnoid haemorrhage were also found to be significantly associated with poor GOS at discharge.Conclusion: The results of our study may be used for stratification of patients, and developing prognostic models to improve the clinical outcome of head injury.

Full textAbstract:
Objective: The present study was designed to assess the outcome following the Decompressive Craniectomy procedures performed in our setup for patients presenting with severe traumatic brain injury.
 Materials and Methods: This was a retrospective study wherein the medical records of adult patients that presented with an initial Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) ? 8 and in whom decompressive craniectomy had been carried out for severe traumatic brain injury were retrospectively analyzed. Patients in whom decompressive craniectomy had been carried out for causes other than trauma and patients with initial GCS ? 9 were excluded from the study. The studied parameters included age, sex, initial GCS, computed tomography (CT) brain diagnosis, and the outcome according to the Glasgow coma outcome scale (GOS).
 Results: The study included 12 patients, and of these 12 patients operated with Decompressive Craniectomy for severe traumatic brain injury only 2 survived. The mortality was 83.3%. The initial GCS and age were not statistically different between the survivors and the non-survivors. Based on the Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) only 1 patient had a good outcome. Overall, an unfavorable outcome based on the GOS score was seen in 91.7% of patients.
 Conclusion: Our study concludes that Decompressive Craniectomy is associated with high mortality in patients presenting with severe traumatic brain injury and does not seem to offer a better alternative to standard medical management.

Background: Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) and Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) were the important parameter for the proper management of spontaneous supratentorialintracerebral hemorrhage patients.Objective: The purpose of the present study was to compare the GOS and GCS between surgical and conservative management of spontaneous supratentorialintracerebral hemorrhage patients.Methodology: This randomized control trial was conducted in the Department of Neurosurgery at Dhaka Medical College and Hospital from January 2010 to October 2011 for a period of one year and ten months. All hypertensive patients with spontaneous supratentorial intracerebral hemorrhage who were admitted within 48 hours of stroke in Neurosurgery Department during the study period were considered as a study population. Patients underwent surgery was considered as group I and patients those who did not give the consent for operation were treated conservatively was considered as group II.Result: A total of 31 patients were enrolled in this study of which 14 patients underwent surgical evacuation and 17 patients were selected for conservative therapy. Significant positive correlation was found between the GCS score on admission and GOS at 30 days follow-up in surgery group (r=0.649; p<0.05). But a positive significant correlation (r=0.613; P=0.020) was between GCS follow up with GCS on admission in surgery patients and (r=0.575; P=0.016) in conservative group.Conclusion: In conclusion both GOS and GCS are essential during the management of surgical and conservative spontaneous supratentorialintracerebral hemorrhage patients.Journal of Current and Advance Medical Research 2018;5(2):49-54

Full textAbstract:
I. EFFECTS OF GLASGOW OUTCOME SCALE MISCLASSIFICATION ON TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY CLINICAL TRIALS The Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) is the primary endpoint for efficacy analysis of clinical trials in traumatic brain injury (TBI). Accurate and consistent assessment of outcome after TBI is essential to the evaluation of treatment results, particularly in the context of multicenter studies and trials. The inconsistent measurement or interobserver variation on GOS outcome, or for that matter, on any outcome scales, may adversely affect the sensitivity to detect treatment effects in clinical trial. The objective of this study is to examine effects of nondifferential misclassification of the widely used five-category GOS outcome scale and in particular to assess the impact of this misclassification on detecting a treatment effect and statistical power. We followed two approaches. First, outcome differences were analyzed before and after correction for misclassification using a dataset of 860 patients with severe brain injury randomly sampled from two TBI trials with known differences in outcome. Second, the effects of misclassification on outcome distribution and statistical power were analyzed in simulation studies on a hypothetical 800-patient dataset. Three potential patterns of nondifferential misclassification (random, upward and downward) on the dichotomous GOS outcome were analyzed, and the power of finding treatments differences was investigated in detail. All three patterns of misclassification reduce the power of detecting the true treatment effect and therefore lead to a reduced estimation of the true efficacy. The magnitude of such influence not only depends on the size of the misclassification, but also on the magnitude of the treatment effect. In conclusion, nondifferential misclassification directly reduces the power of finding the true treatment effect. An awareness of this procedural error and methods to reduce misclassification should be incorporated in TBI clinical trials. II. IMPACT OF MISCLASSIFICATION ON THE ORDINAL GLASGOW OUTCOME SCALE IN TRAUMATIC BRIAN INJURY CLINICAL TRIALS The methods of ordinal GOS analysis are recommended to increase efficiency and optimize future TBI trials. To further explore the utility of the ordinal GOS in TBI trials, this study extends our previous investigation regarding the effect of misclassification on the dichotomous GOS to examine the impact of misclassification on the 5-point ordinal scales. The impact of nondifferential misclassification on the ordinal GOS was explored via probabilistic sensitivity analyses using TBI patient datasets contained in the IMPACT database (N=9,205). Three patterns of misclassification including random, upward and downward patterns were extrapolated, with the pre-specified outcome classification error distributions. The conventional 95% confidence intervals and the simulation intervals, which account for the misclassification only and the misclassification and random errors together, were reported. Our simulation results showed that given a specification of a minimum of 80%, modes of 85% and 95% and a maximum of 100% for both sensitivity and specificity (random pattern), or given the same trapezoidal distributed sensitivity but a perfect specificity (upward pattern), the misclassification would have caused an underestimated ordinal GOS in the observed data. In another scenario, given the same trapezoidal distributed specificity but a perfect sensitivity (downward pattern), the misclassification would have resulted in an inflated GOS estimation. Thus, the probabilistic sensitivity analysis suggests that the effect of nondifferential misclassification on the ordinal GOS is likely to be small, compared with the impact on the binary GOS situation. The results indicate that the ordinal GOS analysis may not only gain the efficiency from the nature of the ordinal outcome, but also from the relative smaller impact of the potential misclassification, compared with the conventional binary GOS analysis. Nevertheless, the outcome assessment following TBI is a complex problem. The assessment quality could be influenced by many factors. All possible aspects must be considered to ensure the consistency and reliability of the assessment and optimize the success of the trial. III. A METHOD FOR REDUCING MISCLASSIFICATION IN THE EXTENDED GLASGOW OUTCOME SCORE The eight-point extended Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOSE) is commonly used as the primary outcome measure in traumatic brain injury (TBI) clinical trials. The outcome is conventionally collected through a structured interview with the patient alone or together with a caretaker. Despite the fact that using the structured interview questionnaires helps reach agreement in GOSE assessment between raters, significant variation remains among different raters. We introduce an alternate GOSE rating system as an aid in determining GOSE scores, with the objective of reducing inter-rater variation in the primary outcome assessment in TBI trials. Forty-five trauma centers were randomly assigned to three groups to assess GOSE scores on sample cases, using the alternative GOSE rating system coupled with central quality control (Group 1), the alternative system alone (Group 2), or conventional structured interviews (Group 3). The inter-rater variation between an expert and untrained raters was assessed for each group and reported through raw agreement and with weighted kappa (k) statistics. Groups 2 and 3 without central review yielded inter-rater agreements of 83% (weighted k¼0.81; 95% CI 0.69, 0.92) and 83% (weighted k¼0.76, 95% CI 0.63, 0.89), respectively, in GOS scores. In GOSE, the groups had an agreement of 76% (weighted k¼0.79; 95% CI 0.69, 0.89), and 63% (weighted k¼0.70; 95% CI 0.60, 0.81), respectively. The group using the alternative rating system coupled with central monitoring yielded the highest inter-rater agreement among the three groups in rating GOS (97%; weighted k¼0.95; 95% CI 0.89, 1.00), and GOSE (97%; weighted k¼0.97; 95% CI 0.91, 1.00). The alternate system is an improved GOSE rating method that reduces inter-rater variations and provides for the first time, source documentation and structured narratives that allow a thorough central review of information. The data suggest that a collective effort can be made to minimize inter-rater variation.

Coma, estado vegetativo e sedação são desordens da consciência com diferenças clínicas em que ocorrem redução generalizada ou alteração no conteúdo da consciência, somadas a deficiências no despertar. Objetivo: analisar as relações entre as respostas vitais, faciais e de tônus muscular frente ao estímulo música ou mensagem em pacientes em coma, estado vegetativo ou sedado. Método: Ensaio Clínico Controlado Transversal Unicego para o pesquisador. Local da coleta: duas Unidades de Terapia Intensiva e uma Enfermaria de um Hospital Público de Ensino e Pesquisa. Procedimento de coleta de dados: pacientes com Escala Coma de Glasgow entre 3 e 8 ou Escala de Sedação de Ramsay de 5 ou 6 foram alocados aleatoriamente em um dos três grupos (experimental música, experimental mensagem ou controle). Os familiares gravaram uma mensagem de voz e escolheram uma música de acordo com a preferência do paciente. Foram coletados os sinais vitais, eletroneurografia e expressão facial dos pacientes nos períodos basal e durante a intervenção. Duas sessões de intervenção foram realizadas no mesmo dia. Após 30-40 dias da intervenção inicial foi aplicada a Escala de Resultado de Glasgow. Resultados: a maioria dos 76 pacientes em coma, 9 estado vegetativo ou sedados eram do sexo masculino, tinham entre 18 e 36 anos e foram internados por trauma. Encontrou-se alterações estatisticamente significantes nas variáveis temperatura, expressão facial, eletroneurografia e Escala de Resultado de Glasgow nas análises realizadas nesse estudo, além de alterações mais freqüentes na sessão 2, nos pacientes em coma e estado vegetativo, no canal 1 da eletroneurografia (músculo frontal) e no grupo experimental mensagem com valores médios e porcentagem maiores do que no grupo experimental música. Conclusões: Os resultados em relação aos sinais vitais são limitados e inconclusivos, o que dificulta qualquer inferência em relação a sua influência nas respostas dos pacientes com desordens de consciência em relação aos estímulos apresentados. A expressão facial e a eletroneurografia parecem ser variáveis mais confiáveis para avaliação das respostas desses pacientes, no entanto, mais estudos são sugeridos.<br>Coma, vegetative state and sedation are disorders of consciousness with clinical differences where a generalized reduction or alteration occurs in the consciousness content, coupled with deficiencies in waking. Objective: to analyze the relations between the vital signs, facial expressions and muscular tonus to the music or message stimuli in coma, vegetative state or sedated patients. Method: This study was a single-blinded transversal controlled clinical trial. Data collection: two Intensive Care Units and one ward of a Public Hospital of Education and Research. Procedure: patients with Glasgow Coma Scale between 3 and 8 or Ramsay Sedation Scale of 5 or 6 being randomly placed into one of the three groups (experimental music, experimental message or control). Their relatives recorded a voice message and chose a song according to the patients preference. The vital signs, eletroneurography and facial expressions of the patients were collected both in the baseline and also during the intervention. Two intervention sessions were performed on the same day. The Glasgow Outcome Scale was applied 30-40 days after the initial intervention. Results: the majority of the 76 coma, vegetative state or 11 sedated patients were masculine, between the ages of 18 and 36 and had been interned for trauma. Statistically significant alterations were noted in the variables of temperature, facial expression, eletroneurography and Glasgow Outcome Scale in the analyses performed in this study, in addition to more frequent alterations in session 2, in the coma and vegetative state patients, in channel 1 of the eletroneurography (frontal muscle) and in the message experimental group with mean values and higher percentages than in the music experimental group. Conclusions: The results, in relation to the vital signs, are limited and inconclusive, which complicates any inference regarding their influence on the responses of patients with disorders of consciousness in relation to stimuli. Facial expressions and eletroneurography, seem to be the more reliable variables for evaluation of the responses of these patients; however, additional studies are suggested.

Introdução: A lesão axonial difusa (LAD) se destaca entre os ferimentos traumáticos pela gravidade de suas consequências. Entretanto, são poucas as pesquisas que descrevem a recuperação das vítimas e os fatores associados às consequências dessa lesão. Ampliar o conhecimento nessa área e relevante para introduzir novas técnicas na assistência prestada, planejar tratamentos e monitorar a evolução das vítimas. Objetivo: Descrever a recuperação das vítimas com diagnóstico principal de LAD ate 6 meses após trauma e identificar fatores sociodemograficos e clínicos associados a óbito e dependência aos 6 meses após a lesão. Método: Estudo do tipo coorte prospectivo, com dados coletados na internação, alta hospitalar, 3 e 6 meses após a LAD. Fizeram parte do estudo vítimas de LAD com idade 18 anos e 60 anos, admitidas no Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo no período de julho de 2013 a fevereiro de 2014, com escore na escala de coma de Glasgow (ECGl) 8. A recuperação das vítimas de LAD foi analisada pelas diferenças dos resultados da aplicação da escala de Katz e escala de resultados de Glasgow ampliada (ERGA) em 3 períodos de avaliação (alta, 3 e 6 meses após LAD). Foram testadas associações entre variáveis de interesse e óbito, além de dependência até avaliação final. A regressão logística múltipla foi utilizada para identificar modelos para esses desfechos. Resultados: A casuística compôs-se de 78 vítimas com idade média de 32 anos (dp=11,9), 83,3% envolvida em acidentes de transporte e 89,7% do sexo masculino. A média do Injury Severity Score foi de 35,0 (dp=11,9) e do New Injury Severity Score (NISS), 46,2 (dp=15,9). Para a Maximum Abbreviated Injury Scale/cabeça, a média foi de 4,6 (dp=0,5). LAD leve foi observada em 44,9% das vítimas e a grave em 35,9%. Até 6 meses, 30,8% das vítimas foram a óbito e a pontuação média na ERGA dos sobreviventes evoluiu de 3,8 (dp=1,2) na alta para 2,1 (dp=1,6) aos 3 meses e 1,2 (dp=1,6) na avaliação final. Para a escala de Katz, as médias foram de 8,5 (dp=5,5) na alta, de 3,2 (dp= 5,5) aos 3 meses e 1,8 (dp=4,5) aos 6 meses. Diferenças estatisticamente significativas foram observadas na comparação dos resultados de todos os tempos. Apresentaram significância estatística no modelo de regressão logística para óbito as variáveis de gravidade da LAD com hipóxia pela SpO2 e hipotensão com NISS; para dependência, a gravidade da LAD e tempo de internação hospitalar permaneceram no modelo isoladamente. Conclusões: Foi elevada a mortalidade; entretanto, a grande maioria dos sobreviventes alcançou condições condizentes com vida independente aos 6 meses. Nesse período, a recuperação das vítimas foi expressiva, ainda que mais acentuada nos 3 primeiros meses. A LAD grave destacou-se como fator de risco para óbito e dependência. A quase totalidade das vítimas com essa lesão morreu ou estava dependente aos 6 meses após trauma. Como fatores de risco para óbito, também foram identificados o NISS, a hipóxia pela SpO2 e a hipotensão e, para dependência, o tempo de internação hospitalar<br>Introduction: Diffuse axonal injury (DAI) stands out from other traumatic injuries because of the severity of its consequences. However, few studies describe outcome and the factors associated to outcome of this type of injury. Enhance knowledge in this area is important to introduce new techniques in the delivery of care, treatment planning and to monitor the recovery of DAI. Objective: Describe outcome of victims with primary diagnosis of DAI 6 months after trauma and identify sociodemographic and clinical factors associated to mortality and dependence 6 months after injury. Method: Prospective cohort study with data from admission, discharge, 3 and 6 months after DAI. Participants were DAI victims aged 18 years and 60 years old, admitted to the Hospital das Clínicas da Universidade de São Paulo from July 2013 to February 2014, with a Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) 8. The outcome of victims was analyzed by the differences found between the results of the Katz scale and the Extended Glasgow Outcome scale (GOS-E) in three different periods (discharge, 3 and 6 months after DAI). Associations between variables of interest and mortality, and dependence to final evaluation were tested. Multiple logistic regression was applied to identify models of these outcomes. Results: The sample consisted of 78 victims with an average age of 32 years (SD=11.9), 83.3% involved in traffic accidents, and 89.7% were male. The mean Injury Severity Score was 35.0 (SD=11.9) and the New Injury Severity Score (NISS) was 46.2 (SD=15.9). For the Maximum Abbreviated Injury Scale/head, the average was 4.6 (SD=0.5). Mild DAI was observed in 44.9% of the victims and severe DAI was observed in 35.9%. Up to 6 months, 30.8% of the victims died and the average score in GOS-E survivors increased from 3.8 (SD=1.2) at discharge to 2.1 (SD=1.6) at 3 months and 1.2 (SD=1.6) at the final evaluation. According to Katz scale, the average was 8.5 (SD=5.5) at discharge, 3.2 (SD=5.5) at 3 months and 1.8 (SD=4.5) at 6 months. Statistically significant differences were observed comparing the results from all periods. In the regression model for mortality the variables of DAI severity with hypoxia by SpO2 and hypotension with NISS were statistically relevant; for dependence, the DAI severity and the hospitalization period remained in the model alone. Conclusions: Besides the high mortality, the vast majority of survivors reached conditions consistent with independent living at 6 months after injury. During this period, the recovery of victims was increased, although more pronounced in the first 3 months. Severe DAI stood out as a risk factor for mortality and dependence. Almost all the victims died or were dependent six months after trauma. NISS, hypoxia by SpO2 and hypotension were also identified as risk factors related to mortality; the length of hospitalization was identified as a risk factor related to dependence on outcome

Full textAbstract:
Uvod: Hronični subduralni hematom (HSDH) je učestala i nezanemarljiva traumatska/netraumatska intrakranijalna lezija, naročito kod pacijenata starije životne dobi. Simptomi pacijenata sa HSDH su raznovrsni i često pogrešno protumačeni i lečeni. Zbog navedenih činjenica, HSDH predstavlja veliki izazov u dijagnostici i terapiji. Različiti autori ističu značaj radioloških parametara tokom dijagnostike ovog oboljenja i povezanost sa kliničkom slikom I neurološkim statusom pacijenta, pa je ovo istraživanje bilo usmereno u preciznoj evaluaciji pomenutih parametara, njihovoj prediktivnoj vrednosti i uticaju na prognozu ishoda lečenja. Cilj: Generalni cilj istraživanja je bio da se ispita učestalost pacijenata sa hroničnim subduralnim hematomom na teritoriji Vojvodine u periodu od tri godine; da se analizira starosna dob pacijenata, polna distribucija oboljenja, uticaj komorbiditeta ili faktora rizika na nastanak HSDH; prisustvo ili odsustvo traume koja je doprinela nastanku HSDH, vremenski interval od traume do pojave simpotoma ili znakova bolesti i da se omogući praćenje efekta terapije pacijenata sa ovim oboljenjem. Specifični ciljevi su obuhvatili: 1. Da se utvrde parametri kompjuterizovane tomografije koji imaju prediktivni značaj u pozitivnom ishodu lečenja pacijenata sa hroničnim subduralnim hematomom. 2. Da se utvrde klinički parametri koji imaju prediktivni značaj u pozitivnom ishodu lečenja pacijenata sa hroničnim subduralnim hematomom. 3. Da se dobije model sa najvećom specifičnošću i senzitivnošću za predikciju ishoda lečenja, kombinacijom kliničkih i parametrara kompjuterizovane tomografije kod pacijenata sa hroničnim subduralnim hematomom. Materijal i metode: Istraživanje je obavljeno kao prospektivna trogodišnja studija u periodu od aprila 2010. do aprila 2013. godine u Kliničkom Centru Vojvodine- Centru za radiologiju i Klinici za neurohirurgiju i obuvatila je 83 pacijenata sa dijagnozom hroničnog subduralnog hematoma. Svi ispitanici su dijagnostikovani upotrebom kompjuterizovane tomografije glave (CT) i lečeni na Klinici za neurohirurgiju KCV. Izvori podataka su celokupna medicinska dokumentacija svakog pacijenta od perioda prve hospitalizacije do njihovog otpusta, a uključuje i podatke vezane za subjektivni osećaj o zdravstvenom stanju koje su pacijenti usmeno izneli šest meseci nakon hospitalnog otpusta. Rezultati: Rezultati istraživanja pokazuju da je Glasgow Coma Scala (GCS) tj. nivo svesti pacijenta na hospitalnom prijemu jedini parametar sa visokom prediktivnom vrednošću za klinički ishod lečenja pacijenata sa HSDH procenjen preko Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS). Preostali radiološki i klinički parametri (širina hematoma, pomeraj mediosagitalne linije, denzitet hematoma, starost pacijenta) nemaju visoku prediktivnu vrednost za klinički ishod pacijenata sa hroničnim subduralnim hematomom. Zaključak: Na osnovu grupe analiziranih pacijenata sa HSDH nije bilo moguće napraviti optimalan model za predikciju ishoda lečenja kombinujući radiološke i kliničke parametre. Pojedinačno posmatrani radiološki parametri nisu imali visoku prediktivnu vrednost za ishod lečenja pacijenata sa HSDH. Izolovan klinički parametar- GCS- je jedini visoko prediktivni faktor za ishod lečenja pacijenata sa HSDH. Kombinacija kliničkih i radioloških parametara daje visoku vrednost predviđanja kliničkog ishoda lečenja, ali samo zahvaljujući izrazito visokoj prediktivnoj vrednosti GCS. Iz svega navedenog, kompjuterizovana tomografija (CT) ima veliki značaj u ranoj dijagnostici i praćenju terapije pacijenata sa HSDH, ali CT parametri ponaosob nemaju značaj u predviđanju ishoda lečenja.<br>Introduction: Chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH) is common traumatic/no traumatic intracranial lesion, especially in older patients. Symptomatology of this disease is variable and often is misdiagnosed and treated with specially challenges in diagnostic and therapy. Different authors pointed on importance of radiological parameters during diagnostic of this disease and connections with clinic and neurological status in patients with chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH), so this thesis was directed to evaluate radiological and clinical parameters of CSDHs and to show their predictive values and their significance on patient’s outcome. Aim: General aim of this thesis was to examine frequency of patients with chronic subdural hematoma in Vojvodina, during the period of three years, to analyze the age of population with CSDHs, the gender distribution, an impact of comorbidity or risk factors for patients with CSDHs, the presence or absence of trauma which has contributed to CSDH, to determine time interval from trauma to appearance of symptoms and signs of disease, monitoring the effect of therapy. Specific aims were: 1. To determine clinical parameters with a positive predictive significance on patients outcome 2. To determine radiological parameters with a positive predictive significance on patients outcome 3. To determine optimal prognostic model with high specificity and sensitivity, using combination of radiological and clinical parameters for positive prediction outcome. Material and methods: The study was performed as three-year prospective study from April 2010 to April 2013 in Clinical Centre of Vojvodina, Centre for Radiology and Clinic of Neurosurgery and includes 83 patients with chronic subdural hematoma. All patients were diagnosed using computed tomography of the brain (CT scan) and all were treated in Clinic of Neurosurgery (KCV). Data sources included the medical records of each patient from the time of first hospitalization to period of their discharge and included data related to the subjective feeling of the health that patients verbally present six months after hospital discharge. Results: The results showed that the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) - a level of consciousness of the patient on the hospital admission was the only parameter with a high predictive value for clinical outcome of patients with CSDH assessed through Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS). Other evaluated radiological and clinical parameters (width of the CSDH, mediosagital line displacement, a density of the CSDH, the age of the patient) did not have high predictive values for the clinical outcome in patients with chronic subdural hematoma. Conclusion: Based on the analyzed group of patients with CSDH it was not possible to make optimal predictive model for outcome by combining radiological and clinical parameters. Radiographic parameters did not have high predictive values for treatment outcome in patients with CSDH. Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) is the only highly predictive factor for treatment outcome in patients with CSDH. The combination of clinical and radiological parameters gives high predictive value for clinical outcome, but only because of extremely high predictive value of GCS. Therefore, computed tomography (CT) is of great importance in early diagnosis and therapy monitoring of patients with CSDH, but CT parameters did not have the high predictive values for the patient’s clinical outcome.

Uvod: Traumatsko moždano oštećenje (TMO) predstavlja globalni zdravstveni problem koji pogađa oko 10 miliona ljudi godišnje širom sveta. Teška traumatska moždana oštećenja (TTMO) čine 10% svih TMO i imaju visoku stopu mortaliteta i neizvestan oporavak. Ranije prepoznavanje sistemskih faktora koji utiču na ishod lečenja može da ima značajan uticaj na pravovremeno započinjanje terapijskih mera i smanjivanje morbiditeta i mortaliteta. Cilj istraživanja: Identifikovati sistemske faktore koji imaju značajan uticaj na ishod lečenja povređenih sa TTMO u Jedinici intenzivnog lečenja (JIL) tokom prvog dana hospitalizacije. Metodologija: Ispitivanje je sprovedeno kao retrospektivno-prospektivna studija koja je obuhvatila 115 povređenih ispitanika sa TTMO koji su hospitalizovani u JIL Urgentnog centra Kliničkog centra Vojvodine (UC KCV) u periodu od 1.01.2014.-1.10.2017. Iz medicinske dokumentacije, za svakog ispitanika uključenog u istraživanje su uzeti u razmatranje i analizu sledeći parametri u toku prvih 24 časa od momenta prijema u JIL: demografske i opšte karakteristike ispitanika od značaja za istraživanje i sistemski prediktivni faktori (sistolni i srednji arterijski pritisak- SAP/MAP, glikemija-ŠUK, telesna temperatura-TT, pH, parcijalni pritisak kiseonika-PaO2 i parcijalni pritisak ugljem dioksida- PaCO2) registrovani u pet vremenskih tačaka (0h, 6h, 12h,18h, 24h). Svi gore navedeni podaci su posmatrani i analizirani kao prediktorski faktori tj. nezavisne varijable u odnosu na zavisnu varijablu „ishod lečenja“ definisanu kao Glazgovska skala ishoda (Glasgow outcome scale-GOS) nakon otpusta povređenih iz JIL na Kliniku za neurohirurgiju KCV i GOS nakon otpusta iz Klinike za neurohirurgiju KCV i „tok lečenja“ definisan kroz dužinu boravka povređenih u JIL UC KCV, dužinu boravka na Klinici za neurohirurgiju KCV, odnosno ukupno trajanje hospitalizacije u KCV, kao i otpust kući ili u odgovarajući rehabilitacioni centar. Statistička analiza je izvršena pomoću statističkog paketa IBM SPSS 23. Podaci su predstavljeni tabelarno i grafički, a statistička značajnost određivana je na nivou p < 0,05. Prikupljeni podaci su obrađeni adekvatnim statističkim metodima. Rezultati: Sistemski faktori koji su se izdvojili kao prediktori smrtnog ishoda (GOS 1) kod povređenih sa TTMO tokom prvog dana boravka u JIL su upotreba vazoaktivne potpore i glikemija. Upotreba vazoaktivne potpore povećava verovatnoću za smrtni ishod 4,7 puta (OR=0,214; 95%CI: 0,096-0,479; p<0,05). i vrednosti glikemije > 10 mmol/l povećavaju verovatnoću za smrtni ishod u nultom satu (OR= 0,240, 95%CI: 0,087-0,662; p=0,05) i u 24 satu (OR=0,206, 95%CI: 0,037 – 0,929; p=0,05). Sa svakim porastom telesne temperature za jednu jedinicu u posmatranom intervalu raste verovatnoća za pozitivan ishod (OR =2,118 , 95%CI: 1,097 – 4,091; p<0,05) i vrednosti glikemije u intervalu od 4-8 mmol/l povećavaju verovatnoću za pozitivan ishod 2,5 puta. Sistemski faktori koji su se izdvojili u smislu predikcije ishoda lečenja ispitanika nakon otpusta iz JIL su vrednosti glikemije i telesna temperatura. Vrednost glikemije na prijemu u intervalu od 6,9 do 7,4 mmol/l povećavaju verovatnoću boljeg oporavka (GOS 4-5 vs. GOS 2-3). Niže vrednosti glikemiije u narednim vremenskim tačkama (6h, 12h, 18h) takođe povećavaju verovatnoću za bolji oporavak. Ukoliko je telesna temperatura u 6-om i 12-om satu, viša od 36,5 °C veća je verovatnoća za bolji neurološki oporavak, prilikom otpusta iz JIL, odnosno Klinike za neurohirurgiju KCV. Ispitanici koji su imali više vrednosti telesne temperature su imali duže trajanje hospitalizacije (OR=4,096; 95%CI; 0,709-7,483;p<0,05). Na dužinu boravka u JIL, kao i na otpust kući ili odgovarajući rehabilitacioni centar nije imao uticaj nijedan posmatrani sistemski faktor. Zaključak: Sistemski prediktivni faktori toka i ishoda lečenja povređenih sa TTMO su upotreba vazoaktivne potpore, glikemija i telesna temperatura.<br>Introduction: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a global health problem that affects about 10 million people worldwide annually. Severe traumatic brain injury (STBI) account for 10% of all TBI and has high morbidity and unreliable recovery. Early recognition of systemic factors that affect the treatment outcome can have a significant impact on the timely initiation of therapeutic measures and the reduction of morbidity and mortality. The objective of the research: to identify systemic factors that have a significant impact on the treatment outcome of the STBI patients in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) during the first day of hospitalization. Methodology: The study was conducted as a retrospective-prospective study that included 115 injured patients with STBI who were hospitalized in the ICU, Emergency Center (EC) of the Clinical Center of Vojvodina (CCV) in the period from 01.01.2014 to 1.10.2017. From the medical documentation, for each participant involved in the research, the following parameters within the first 24 hours after the admission were considered and analyzed: demographic and general characteristics of the participants of importance for research and systemic predictive factors (systolic and mean arterial pressure-SAP / MAP, glycemia, body temperature -TT, pH, partial pressure of oxygen-PaO2 and partial pressure of carbon dioxide-PaCO2) registered at five time points (0h, 6h, 12h,18h, 24h). All of the above data were observed and analyzed as predictors, ie, independent variables in relation to the dependent variable "treatment outcome" defined as the Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) after the transfer from the ICU to the Clinic of neurosurgery of the CCV and GOS after discharge from a Clinic of neurosurgery and "treatment course" defined by length of stay in ICU, or the total duration of hospitalization in CCV, as well as the release to the home or the appropriate rehabilitation center. Statistical analysis was performed using the IBM SPSS 23 statistical package. The data are presented in tables and graphs, and the statistical significance was determined at p <0.05. The collected data were processed with adequate statistical methods. Results: Systemic factors that had predictive value for the lethal outcome (GOS 1) in STBI during the first day of ICU stay were the use of vasopressors and glycemia. The use of vasopressors increases the likelihood of fatal outcome 4.7 times (OR= 0,214; 95%CI: 0,096-0,479; p<0,05) and glycemic values > 10 mmol/l increase the likelihood of fatal outcome on admission (OR=0,240, 95%CI: 0,087-0,662; p=0,05) and after 24 hours (OR=0,206, 95%CI: 0,037 – 0,929; p=0,05). With each increase in body temperature for one unit in the observed interval, the probability of a positive outcome increases (OR=2,118, 95%CI: 1,097 – 4,091;p<0,05) and glycemic values in the range 4-8 mmol/l increase the probability of a positive outcome 2.5 times. Systemic factors that predict the treatment outcome of the patients after their discharge from ICU are glycemia and body temperature. The blood sugar on admission in the ICU in the range from 6.9 to 7.4 mmol/l increases the opportunity of a better recovery (GOS 4-5 vs. GOS 2-3). Lower glycemic values at the next time points (6h, 12h, 18h) also increase the opportunity of a better recovery. If the body temperature in the 6th and 12th-hour postadmission is higher than 36.5° C, the greater opportunity for better neurological improvement when the patient is discharged from ICU, or from the Clinic of neurosurgery. Participants who had higher values of body temperature had a longer duration of hospitalization (OR 4.096; 95% CI; 0.709-7.483;p<0,05). The length of the stay in ICU, as well as the release to the home or the appropriate rehabilitation center, was not affected by any observed systemic factor. Conclusion: Systemic predictive flow factors and outcome of treatment factors with STBI use of vasopressors, glycemia and body temperature.

Pod pojmom politraume se podrazumeva teška istovremena povreda najmanje dve regije tela sa anatomskom težinom povrede AIS koja je jednaka ili veća od tri kao i ukupna izračunata anatomska težina povreda izražena ISS zbirom mora da bude veća od 15. Cilj istraživanja je da se primenom upitnika (SF36, PTSD–testa i Glazgov skale ishoda) proceni kvalitet života između politraumatizovanih pacijenata sa prelomomima dugih kostiju i politraumatizovanih bez preloma duge kosti kao i da se uoče rani pokazatelji loše prognoze kvaliteta života nakon završetka lečenja. Istraživanje je prospektivnog karaktera i obuhvatilo je 202 politraumatizovana pacijenta koji su bili povređeni u periodu 2010-2014 godine i bili lečeni u Urgentnom Centu Kliničkog Centra Vojvodine. Od 202 politraumatizovana pacijenta na kontrolne preglede se odazvalo ukupno 72 pacijenta, 37 sa prelomima dugih kostiju - ispitivana grupa i 35 politraumatizovanih pacijenata bez preloma duge kosti koji su činili kontrolnu gupu. Godinu dana nakon završetka hospitalizacije svaki ispitanik je popunjavao upitnik( SF36, PTSD test i Glazgov skala ishoda ), načinjen je klinički pregled i standardna radiografija predela preloma duge kosti. Rezultati ukazuju da ukupni kvalitet života nakon završetka lečenja se ne razlikuje značajno između ispitivanih grupa, iako politraumatizovani sa prelomima dugih kostiju imaju niži kvalitet života, odnosno značajno lošije fizički funkcionišu i imaju značajno češće psihičke poremećaje (postraumatski stresni poremećaj, depresija) u odnosu na kontrolnu grupu. Tip preloma duge kosti nije uticao na krajnji kvalitet života politraumatizovanih, dok su oni sa dva i više preloma imali značajno lošiji kvalitet života. Na osnovu dobijenih rezultata konstatovali smo da veću šansu za bolji kvalitet života imaju pacijenti mlađi od 44 godine, ukoliko su inicjalno imali vrednost ISS skora manji od 30,5 bodova, vrednosti sistolnog i dijastolnog arterijskog pritiska u referentnim vrednostima, kao i broja eritrocita i trombocita, i ukoliko su primili manje od 4 jedinica transfuzije krvi u prva 24 časa.<br>The term of polytrauma means, a patient with multiple severe injuries in at least two regions of the body with anatomical severity of trauma AIS equal or greater than three and the total calculated weight anatomical injuries expressed by ISS score must be greater than 15. The aim of our study is early estimate of quality of life in polytrauma patients with multiple fractures of the long bones and polytrauma patients without fractures of long bones as well as to detect early indicators of poor prognosis of quality of life after treatment, using questionnaires (SF 36, PTSD test and Glasgow Outcome Scale). This was prospective study and included 202 polytrauma patients who were injured during the period 2010-2014 and were treated in the Emergency Center of Clinical Center of Vojvodina. From 202 polytrauma patients, on control examinations responded 72 patients, 37 with fractures of long bones - study group and 35 polytrauma patients without fractures of long bones and they were control group. One year after the end of hospitalization each patient filled out a questionnaire (SF36, PTSD test and Glasgow Outcome Scale), made a clinical examination and standard X-rays of long bone fractures. Our results indicate that the overall quality of life after treatment is not significantly different between the groups, although polytraumatized patients with fractures have a lower quality of life and significantly worse physical functioning and have significantly more mental disorders (post-traumatic stress disorder, depression) compared to the control group. Type of long bone fractures did not affect on the final quality of life, while those patients with two or more fractures had a significantly poorer quality of life. Based on these results we concluded that greater chance for a better quality of life have patients younger than 44 years, unless they had initially ISS score less than 30.5 points, systolic and diastolic blood pressure in the reference values as well as the number of red blood cells and platelets, and if they received less than 4 units of blood transfusions in the first 24 hours.

Full textAbstract:
Трауматско оштећење мозга (ТОМ) настаје услед дејства спољашње мехничке силе на кранијум и ендокранијални садржај, које се карактерише привременим или трајним неуролошким оштећењем, функционалном онеспособљеношћу или психосоцијалном неприлагођеношћу. Најчешће коришћени предиктори исхода су године повређеног, иницијални Гласгов кома скор (ГКС), статус зеница на пријему, време протекло од момента повређивања до неурохируршког збрињавања, удружене повреде, хипоксија, хипертензија и налаз компјутерско-томографског снимања. Основни циљ истраживања је израда алгоритма ургентног лечења трауматског можданог оштећења и дизајн скале за рану предикцију исхода ТОМ уз додатну анализу појединих фактора на пријему (ГКС, неуролошки налаз, радиолошки налаз, клинички симптоми). Спроведено је ретроспективно и проспективно истраживање којим је обухваћено 568 испитаника који су у периоду од 1.6.2018. до 31.05.2019. лечени унутар Клиничког центра Војводине у Новом Саду због трауматске озледе мозга. Узорак је чинило 34,3% жена и 65,7 % мушкараца. Старосна структура узорка је од 18-96 године (М=56,56; SD=20,17). Свим пацијентима је по пријему начињена радиолошка дијагностика компјутеризованом томографијом (ЦТ), начињен је детаљан физикални и неуролошки преглед, те је детаљно узета анамнеза. Нотирани су следећи подаци: витални параметри (артеријски крвни притисак, сатурација крви кисеоником), статус и повреде других система органа, знаци повређивања главе и врата. За неуролошки преглед је коришћена ГКС скала. За ЦТ преглед је нотирано присуство интракранијалних трауматских лезија и прелома лобање. Резултати овог истраживања указали су на неопходност пажљивог разматрања бројних фактора (радиолошких и клиничких) који се могу испољити већ на самом пријему. Иако ЦТ има висок појединачни допринос предвиђању исхода у моделу са више варијабли није се издвојио као значајан. Пацијенти који су имали дужи период између времена протеклог од момента повређивања до неурохируршког збрињавања имали су бољи исход лечења. Предпоставља се да су пацијенти који су стизали раније у здравствену установу имали тежа трауматска оштећења мозга и самим тим исход је био лошији, док су пацијенти са благим оштећењима долазили касније управо из разлога што манифестације проблема нису биле хитне. Ротердам скала се издвојила добром дискриминативном способношћу када се користи као изолован инструмент. Као најјачи предиктори издвојили су се следећи предиктори: нису показане цистерне на ЦТ-у, присутан САХ, померање више од 5 mm, присутан мали субдурални хематом, присутна велика контузија, примена антиагрегациона тераpија. Успешност предвиђања на основу новог модела је 96%. Резултати студије се могу искористити за боље разумевање ТОМ у смислу лакшег решавања дијагностичких дилема и терапијских, креирање ефикаснијих дијагностичких протокола и прецизније процене исхода након повређивања. Предикција исхода лечења је од великог значаја како би се благовермено направио алгоритам лечења и праћења ових пацијената.<br>Traumatsko oštećenje mozga (TOM) nastaje usled dejstva spoljašnje mehničke sile na kranijum i endokranijalni sadržaj, koje se karakteriše privremenim ili trajnim neurološkim oštećenjem, funkcionalnom onesposobljenošću ili psihosocijalnom neprilagođenošću. Najčešće korišćeni prediktori ishoda su godine povređenog, inicijalni Glasgov koma skor (GKS), status zenica na prijemu, vreme proteklo od momenta povređivanja do neurohirurškog zbrinjavanja, udružene povrede, hipoksija, hipertenzija i nalaz kompjutersko-tomografskog snimanja. Osnovni cilj istraživanja je izrada algoritma urgentnog lečenja traumatskog moždanog oštećenja i dizajn skale za ranu predikciju ishoda TOM uz dodatnu analizu pojedinih faktora na prijemu (GKS, neurološki nalaz, radiološki nalaz, klinički simptomi). Sprovedeno je retrospektivno i prospektivno istraživanje kojim je obuhvaćeno 568 ispitanika koji su u periodu od 1.6.2018. do 31.05.2019. lečeni unutar Kliničkog centra Vojvodine u Novom Sadu zbog traumatske ozlede mozga. Uzorak je činilo 34,3% žena i 65,7 % muškaraca. Starosna struktura uzorka je od 18-96 godine (M=56,56; SD=20,17). Svim pacijentima je po prijemu načinjena radiološka dijagnostika kompjuterizovanom tomografijom (CT), načinjen je detaljan fizikalni i neurološki pregled, te je detaljno uzeta anamneza. Notirani su sledeći podaci: vitalni parametri (arterijski krvni pritisak, saturacija krvi kiseonikom), status i povrede drugih sistema organa, znaci povređivanja glave i vrata. Za neurološki pregled je korišćena GKS skala. Za CT pregled je notirano prisustvo intrakranijalnih traumatskih lezija i preloma lobanje. Rezultati ovog istraživanja ukazali su na neophodnost pažljivog razmatranja brojnih faktora (radioloških i kliničkih) koji se mogu ispoljiti već na samom prijemu. Iako CT ima visok pojedinačni doprinos predviđanju ishoda u modelu sa više varijabli nije se izdvojio kao značajan. Pacijenti koji su imali duži period između vremena proteklog od momenta povređivanja do neurohirurškog zbrinjavanja imali su bolji ishod lečenja. Predpostavlja se da su pacijenti koji su stizali ranije u zdravstvenu ustanovu imali teža traumatska oštećenja mozga i samim tim ishod je bio lošiji, dok su pacijenti sa blagim oštećenjima dolazili kasnije upravo iz razloga što manifestacije problema nisu bile hitne. Roterdam skala se izdvojila dobrom diskriminativnom sposobnošću kada se koristi kao izolovan instrument. Kao najjači prediktori izdvojili su se sledeći prediktori: nisu pokazane cisterne na CT-u, prisutan SAH, pomeranje više od 5 mm, prisutan mali subduralni hematom, prisutna velika kontuzija, primena antiagregaciona terapija. Uspešnost predviđanja na osnovu novog modela je 96%. Rezultati studije se mogu iskoristiti za bolje razumevanje TOM u smislu lakšeg rešavanja dijagnostičkih dilema i terapijskih, kreiranje efikasnijih dijagnostičkih protokola i preciznije procene ishoda nakon povređivanja. Predikcija ishoda lečenja je od velikog značaja kako bi se blagovermeno napravio algoritam lečenja i praćenja ovih pacijenata.<br>Traumatic brain injury (TBI) Is defined as temporary or permanent neurological damage, functional disability or psychosocial inadaptability occurring due to effects of external mechanical force to brain and cranium. Mostly used predictors are age, Glasgow coma scale score, pupillary reactivity, time from injury to neurosurgical intervention, combined injuries, hypoxia, hypertension and computed tomography (CT) findings. Basic goal of this research was to analyse TBI and design early outcome prediction scale together with the analysis of individual factors on admission (GCS, neurological status, radiological findings). This research was both retro and prospective and included 568 patients treated for TBI at Clinical centre of Vojvodina in Novi Sad from 01.06.2018. to 31.05.2019. Sample was made out of 34,3% females and 65,7 % males aged from 18 to 96 years ( M=56,56; SD=20,17). All patients had CT diagnostics preformed upon admission, had undergone detailed general and neurological examination and patient’s history was taken. Physical examination included: vitals (arterial blood pressure, blood oxygenation), status and injuries of other organs, signs of injury to head and neck. GCS scale was used for neurological examination Computed tomography (CT) included presence of intracranial lesions and skull fractures. Results of this research showed importance of careful observation of multiple factors (radiological and clinical) that can be present at the time of admission. Despite CT having high individual predictive power for outcome, in multiple variable model it was not significant. Patients with longer time elapsed to treatment had better outcome. It is assumed that patients who arrived shortly after injury had severe TBI thus having worse outcome, while patients suffering from mild TBI arrived later and thus had better outcome right because their symptoms of TBI were not very symptomatic. Rotterdam scale showed good disciminative power. The strongest predictors were: CT absence of cisterns, present subarachnoid haemorrhage, midline shift over 5mm, presence of small subdural haematoma, presence of large contusion, presence of antiaggregational therapy. Predictive power based on primary model was 96%. Results of this study can be used for better understanding of TBI in order to solve some diagnostic dilemma, create more efficient diagnostic protocols and facilitate more precise outcome assessment after TBI. Prediction of treatment outcome is very important in order to timely design treatment algorithm of treatment and follow up of TBI patients.

Full textAbstract:
Тешка траума се може дефинисати на неколико различитих начина. Најчешће коришћена дефиниција укључује коришћење Injury Severity Score ( ISS скор). Ако је вредност ISS скор >15, ради се о тешкој трауми. Траума је временски осетљиво стање, због тога је за збрињавање тешко повређених пацијената неопходна добра сарадња различитих нивоа здравствене заштите и здравствених стручњака различитих специјалности. У претходних неколико деценија, због сложенијег процеса лечења и великих трошкова, дошло је до потребе за што објективнијом проценом стања повређеног и исхода лечења. Циљ: Упоредити сензитивност и специфичност T-RTS скорa (Triage Revised Trauma Score), CRAMS скалe (Circulation, Respiration, Abdomen, Motor and Speech), МGAP скора (Mechanism, Glasgow coma scale, Age, and arterial Pressure) и GAP скора (Glasgow coma scale, Age, and arterial Pressure) примењених на прехоспиталном нивоу, проценити могућности прехоспитално примењених RTS, CRAMS, МGAP и GAP скорова у предикцији исхода лечења повређеног пацијента и утврдити значај појединачних фактора, одређиваних на прехоспиталном нивоу током иницијалног прегледa повређеног, за процену тежине повреде и предикцију исхода лечења повређеног. Истраживање је проспективног, опсервационог карактера. У истраживање су укључени пацијенти старији од 18 година, које су лекари Заводa за хитну медицинску помоћ Нови Сад (ЗЗХМП НС) и Службe хитне медицинске помоћи Дома здравља Бечеј (СХМП ДЗ Бечеј) збрињавали на терену након трауме, а потом их транспортовали у Ургентни центар Клиничког центра Војводине (УЦ КЦВ). На основу вредности ISS скора пацијенти су сврстани у једну од две групе: група А- пацијенти код којих је ISS скор након завршене дијагностике изнад 15- тешка траума и група Б -пацијенти код којих је након завршене дијагностике ISS скор ≤15- лака траума. У групи А је било 50, а у групи Б 257 пацијената. За граничне вредности скорова које означавају да траума није лака, највећу сензитивност у оцени тежине трауме је имао GAP скор 98,8%, а највећу специфичност MGAP скор 62%. У предвиђању исхода лечења, највећу сензитивност је имао RTS скор за предикцију 95,2%, а специфичност GAP скор и CRAMS скала 87,5%. MGAP скор, а пошто је у снажној корелацији са њим и GAP скор, мерени прехоспитално, су се издвојили као независни предиктор у оцени тежине трауме и предвиђању исхода лечења повређеног. Т- RTS скор и CRAMS скала су се издвојили као појединачни предиктори у оцени тежине трауме, али не и као независни предиктори. RTS скор за предикцију нема статистичку значајност у предвиђању исхода лечења повређеног, за разлику од CRAMS скале која има, али се није издвојила као независни предиктор исхода лечења. Осим наведених траума скорова, као независни предиктори у оцени тежине трауме издвојили су се: систолни крвни притисак, SaO2 у периферној крви мерена пулсном оксиметријом, повреда главе и врата и повреда грудног коша. За предвиђање исхода лечења повређеног само се SaO2 у периферној крви мерена пулсном оксиметријом издвојила као појединачни предиктор, али не и као независни предиктор исхода.<br>Teška trauma se može definisati na nekoliko različitih načina. Najčešće korišćena definicija uključuje korišćenje Injury Severity Score ( ISS skor). Ako je vrednost ISS skor >15, radi se o teškoj traumi. Trauma je vremenski osetljivo stanje, zbog toga je za zbrinjavanje teško povređenih pacijenata neophodna dobra saradnja različitih nivoa zdravstvene zaštite i zdravstvenih stručnjaka različitih specijalnosti. U prethodnih nekoliko decenija, zbog složenijeg procesa lečenja i velikih troškova, došlo je do potrebe za što objektivnijom procenom stanja povređenog i ishoda lečenja. Cilj: Uporediti senzitivnost i specifičnost T-RTS skora (Triage Revised Trauma Score), CRAMS skale (Circulation, Respiration, Abdomen, Motor and Speech), MGAP skora (Mechanism, Glasgow coma scale, Age, and arterial Pressure) i GAP skora (Glasgow coma scale, Age, and arterial Pressure) primenjenih na prehospitalnom nivou, proceniti mogućnosti prehospitalno primenjenih RTS, CRAMS, MGAP i GAP skorova u predikciji ishoda lečenja povređenog pacijenta i utvrditi značaj pojedinačnih faktora, određivanih na prehospitalnom nivou tokom inicijalnog pregleda povređenog, za procenu težine povrede i predikciju ishoda lečenja povređenog. Istraživanje je prospektivnog, opservacionog karaktera. U istraživanje su uključeni pacijenti stariji od 18 godina, koje su lekari Zavoda za hitnu medicinsku pomoć Novi Sad (ZZHMP NS) i Službe hitne medicinske pomoći Doma zdravlja Bečej (SHMP DZ Bečej) zbrinjavali na terenu nakon traume, a potom ih transportovali u Urgentni centar Kliničkog centra Vojvodine (UC KCV). Na osnovu vrednosti ISS skora pacijenti su svrstani u jednu od dve grupe: grupa A- pacijenti kod kojih je ISS skor nakon završene dijagnostike iznad 15- teška trauma i grupa B -pacijenti kod kojih je nakon završene dijagnostike ISS skor ≤15- laka trauma. U grupi A je bilo 50, a u grupi B 257 pacijenata. Za granične vrednosti skorova koje označavaju da trauma nije laka, najveću senzitivnost u oceni težine traume je imao GAP skor 98,8%, a najveću specifičnost MGAP skor 62%. U predviđanju ishoda lečenja, najveću senzitivnost je imao RTS skor za predikciju 95,2%, a specifičnost GAP skor i CRAMS skala 87,5%. MGAP skor, a pošto je u snažnoj korelaciji sa njim i GAP skor, mereni prehospitalno, su se izdvojili kao nezavisni prediktor u oceni težine traume i predviđanju ishoda lečenja povređenog. T- RTS skor i CRAMS skala su se izdvojili kao pojedinačni prediktori u oceni težine traume, ali ne i kao nezavisni prediktori. RTS skor za predikciju nema statističku značajnost u predviđanju ishoda lečenja povređenog, za razliku od CRAMS skale koja ima, ali se nije izdvojila kao nezavisni prediktor ishoda lečenja. Osim navedenih trauma skorova, kao nezavisni prediktori u oceni težine traume izdvojili su se: sistolni krvni pritisak, SaO2 u perifernoj krvi merena pulsnom oksimetrijom, povreda glave i vrata i povreda grudnog koša. Za predviđanje ishoda lečenja povređenog samo se SaO2 u perifernoj krvi merena pulsnom oksimetrijom izdvojila kao pojedinačni prediktor, ali ne i kao nezavisni prediktor ishoda.<br>Severe trauma could be defined in several ways. The most commonly used definition includes Injury Severity Score (ISS) and severe trauma is determined if ISS >15. Trauma management is a time sensitive issue and a coordination between different levels of health system and many specialists is vital in the treatment of severe trauma. In the last decades, a need for the objective evaluation of the severity of trauma and its outcome was perceived due to the complex management and treatment of trauma and its costs. Aim of the study: to compare the sensitivity and specificity between prehospital scores T-RTS (Revised Trauma Score), CRAMS (Circulation, Respiration, Abdomen, Motors, Speech), MGAP (Mechanism, Glasgow Coma Scale, Age, Arterial Pressure) and GAP (Glasgow Coma Scale, Age, Arterial Pressure), to assess the predictability of prehospital scores (RTS, CRAMS, MGAP and GAP) in the outcome of traumatized patients, to determine the significance of individual factors, initially determined during the prehospital evaluation, in evaluating the severity of trauma and the outcome of treatment. Patients enrolled into this prospective observational study were older than 18, prehospitally treated on the trauma site by the doctors of the Institute of the Emergency Medicine Novi Sad and Health Centre Bečej – Emergency Medical Service and afterward transported into the Emergency Centre Novi Sad. Based on ISS values, patients were divided into two groups: Group A – severe trauma (50 patients; ISS>15) and Group B – mild trauma (257 patients; ISS≤15). For the broder values of scores, determining the severity of trauma, GAP had the highest sensitivity (98%), while MGAP had the highest specificity (62%). RTS had the highest sensitivity in predicting the outcome (95.2%), while GAP and CRAMS had specificity of 87.5%. Prehospital MGAP score, in strong correlation with GAP, was singled out for its independent predictive value in determining the severity of trauma and its outcome. T-RTS and CRAMS stood out to be individual – but not independent – predictors in evaluating the severity of trauma. RTS was not statistically significant in predicting the outcome, in contrast with CRAMS. However, CRAMS was not singled out as an independent predictor of the outcome. In addition to the scores, independent predictors of the severity of trauma were: systolic blood pressure, arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2) by using the pulse oximeter, head, neck and thorax injuries. Only SaO2 proved to be a single – but not independent – predictor of the outcome.

Full textAbstract:
OBJECTIVES: The S100B protein subgroup is a thermolabile acidic calcium-binding protein. S100B protein was first described in the central nervous system. Destruction of the nerve tissue results in S100B protein release from astrocytic glial cells and elevation of its levels in the cerebrospinal fluid. If the blood-brain barrier is also damaged, S100B gets into the systemic circulation and elevated blood levels of S100B are detected. Higher S100B serum levels in patients with head injury are predictive of possible development of secondary brain injury and the extent of permanent injury to the CNS. MATHERIAL AND METHODS: The authors present their results obtained in the group of 39 children aged 0 (newborns) to 17 years with isolated craniocerebral injury. RESULTS: Our group included 39 children aged 0-17 years. Excellent results (GOS - Glasgow outcome scale 4-5) were observed in 33 patients already at the time of transfer from our ICU to the neurological department. There was no death and the poor outcome group included only 6 children. Second GOS evaluation was performed 6 months later, when 36 children were in the GOS 4-5 group and only 3 children in the GOS 2-3 group. CONCLUSIONS: Due to high variability in S100B protein serum levels in children depending on age and gender, no correlation between...

Full textAbstract:
This case focuses on monitoring patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) by asking the question: Does management of cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) as the primary goal of therapy yield lower mortality and higher Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) scores than that achieved with traditional, intracranial pressure (ICP)-based techniques? This study analyzing patients with TBI who underwent monitoring using CPP, rather than the standard ICP-based monitoring, demonstrated lower rates of mortality and improved outcomes compared with other analyses of patients receiving standard ICP-based monitoring. However, because this was not a controlled study, it is not possible to draw firm conclusions. Current guidelines do not recommend one type of monitoring over another but do provide thresholds for blood pressure, ICP, CPP, and advanced cerebral monitoring.

Full textAbstract:
Impact-induced injuries can be classified into blunt and penetrating types. Penetrating injuries are often the byproduct of gunshot wounds and these injuries to the head result in significant mortality and morbidity. The objective of the study is to determine the probability of fatality as a function of admission Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and injury volumes (hematoma and edema) in gunshot wounds using computed tomography (CT) scans. Head CT images from 19 patients were analyzed. Hematoma and edema volumes were computed using grayscale equivalents and special computer software. Hematoma and edema volumes were found to be better predictors than GCS. In addition to admission GCS, hematoma and edema volumes may allow more accurate prediction of outcome, and these data should provide informed counseling of relatives and improved guidelines for more efficient resource allocation during the acute care phase.

Full textAbstract:
Survival of patients with out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) is still very low. After the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), survivors are admitted to the intensive care unit. They can be conscious or comatose. Conscious survivors of cardiac arrest generally have a good prognosis. In comatose patients, prognosis is better in patients with shockable rhythm (ventricular tachycradia or ventricular fibrillation) as the initial rhythm at the arrival of Emergency medical team. In comatose patients we try to predict the neurological outcome with everyday clinical examination, a neuron specific enolase (NSE), comuter tomography (CT) scan or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain, electroencephalogram (EEG) and somoatosensoric evoked potentials (SSEP). Neurological outcome is presented according to Glasgow-Pittsburgh Cerebral Performance Category Scale. Certain proportion of comatose patients may regain consciousness even after their discharge from the intensive care unit (ICU).

In XIII Congresso Paulista de Neurologia. Zeppelini Editorial e Comunicação, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.5327/1516-3180.594.
Full textAbstract:
Context: Déjérine-Roussy Syndrome is a rare entity that occurs after an ischemia located in the ventral posterolateral nucleus, and it is characterized by hemiplegia, superficial hemianesthesia, mild hemiataxia and astereognosis, pain on the paretic side and choreoathetosis movements. This unusual condition can be caused by haemorrhage or neoplasm. Thalamic tumors make up less than 5% of all intracranial tumors. The rare clinical presentation of a thalamic tumor is a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge for neurology and neurosurgery practice and generally requires treatment without biopsy. Case report: A 54-years-old man presented complaining of burning and tingling paraesthesias, decreased sensitivity in left dimidium, associated with decreased visual acuity in the left eye. Physical examination showed complete left hemiparesis provided grade 4-, normoreflexia with athetoid movements of the left arm and hand, painful, thermal hemihipoesthesia and epicritic touch, allodyne in the left hemibody, pressure sensitivity present globally, visual campimetry by confrontation with heteronymous hemianopia without changes in the cranial nerves. Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the Skull Base showed an oval mass, with hyposignal in T1 and hypersignal in T2 and FLAIR, with peripheral contrast uptake in the thalamus and nuclei from the right base. The patient showed good clinical-surgical evolution after surgery with Glasgow Outcome Scale 4 and modified Rankin scale 2. Anatomical Pathology confirmed low-grade glioma. Conclusions: Early diagnosis and immediate therapy can delay a fatal outcome or decrease treatment-related morbidity.
