Abstract
AbstractIntracranial pressure monitoring seems to be an indispensable stage in management of severe traumatic brain injured patient. Since 2009, this technique completes our trauma protocol. The study has been carried out from 2011 to 2013 in Prof. Dr. N. Oblu hospital in Iasi. There have been included in the study patients with severe craniocerebral trauma, who had traumatic brain lesions CT detected and Glasgow score between 3 and 8. The age ranged from 16 to 60, an average of 35.5 years old. 50% of the studied cases had a favorable outcome. Diagrams associated to this category of patients showed increases in intracranial pressure above normal values but without repeated values above 50 mm Hg. Most of those patients had a good evolution under medical treatment. Monitoring intracranial pressure is an extremely useful stage in treating intracranial high pressure in traumatology and it should be included in the equipment of any intensive therapy section caring traumatic patients
