Abstract
In Brief This study investigates the effect of tactile stimulation on consciousness and vital signs in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) in ICUs. A clinical trial was conducted on 60 patients with TBI admitted to ICUs in three hospitals in Qazvin, Iran, in 2016. Study results show that tactile stimulation increased the level of consciousness and decreased the systolic BP, diastolic BP, and respiratory rate in these patients. A study of 60 ICU patients with traumatic brain injury in Qazvin, Iran, showed that tactile stimulation could increase the level of consciousness and decrease systolic BP, diastolic BP, and respiratory rate in these patients, adding to the previous literature on this topic.
