Abstract
An automated, non-invasive computer assisted system for following trends in the electroencephalogram (EEG), somatosensory evoked potentials (SSEP), transcranial impedance (TCI), transthoracic impedance (TTI), and conventional variables has been developed for use in the trauma patient with head injury. The clinical evaluation is based on a percentage of normal. All physiologic data is stored in the computer system for graphical display on a video monitor. Preliminary findings show a correlation between EEG activity, SSEP, and severity of neurologic dysfunction. TCI is reduced in most patients with head trauma. TTI changes are observed secondary to fluid accumulation in the lungs.
