Rehabilitation Rehabilitation Assessment Decreased short term memory Paraparesis
Occurs every 15 seconds Occurs every 15 seconds 500,000 annual ED visits Most common causes: MVAs, falls, assaults Males 15-24, elderly > 75 Accounts for 40% of traumatic deaths
1st 1st Primary Injury : initial insult … i.e. from bleed
Secondary Injury : delayed injury from hypoxia, ischemia, and release of neurotoxins Secondary Injury : delayed injury from hypoxia, ischemia, and release of neurotoxins Excitatory amino acids can cause swelling and neuronal death Endogenous opioids cause increased metabolism, using glucose supplies Increased ICP, especially > 40 leads to brain hypoxia, ischemia, hydrocephalus, herniation Hydrocephalus: clotted blood obstructs CSF outflow tracts and absorption of CSF, disrupts blood-brain barrier
Concussion Concussion Contusion Epidural hematoma (EDH) Subdural hematoma (SDH) Basilar skull fracture Diffuse axonal injury (DAI)
Mild Traumatic Brain Injury: Mild Traumatic Brain Injury: Concussion : brief change in mental status with axonal swelling Moderate to Severe Brain Injury: Contusion: “bruising” Fractures : linear,comminuted, depressed, basalar Bleeds : epidural, subdural, intracerebral
Period of LOC < 30 mins with a GCS of 13-15 after this LOC Period of LOC < 30 mins with a GCS of 13-15 after this LOC Alteration in mental status at the time of the event (dazed and confused)
Grade I (confusion, no amnesia, no LOC) Grade I (confusion, no amnesia, no LOC) Remove from activity (may return when asymptomatic) 3 concussions in 3 months: no activity that risks head trauma for 3 months Grade II (confusion and amnesia) Remove from activity for day Recheck in 24 hours No activity for 1 week Two grade II concussions in 3 months, no activity for 3 months Grade III (LOC) To ED for CT Symptom free for 2 weeks, then another 30 days Two grade III concussions, no activity for 3 months
Somatic symptoms : headache, sleep disturbance, dizziness, vertigo, nausea, fatigue, sensitivity to light or noise Somatic symptoms : headache, sleep disturbance, dizziness, vertigo, nausea, fatigue, sensitivity to light or noise Cognitive : attention, concentration, memory problems Affective : irritability, depression, anxiety, emotional lability
Small bleeds Small bleeds Cerebral Edema Deficits are based on lobe involved
Linear
95% go to surgery 95% go to surgery Antibitoics for infection Brain tissue is involved
Laceration of dural arteries or veins Laceration of dural arteries or veins Classically laceration of middle meningeal artery “Lucid interval” followed by rapid deterioration Acute bleed
60-80% mortality 60-80% mortality Tearing of bridging veins, pial artery, or cortical veins Acute vs chronic
Lacerations of vessels in subarachnoid space Lacerations of vessels in subarachnoid space
Intraventricular hemorrhage Intraventricular hemorrhage Very severe TBI Poor prognosis Intracerebral hemorrhage
Decreased neurologic function is best predictor of brain injury Decreased neurologic function is best predictor of brain injury Pay attention to cranial nerves
Labs: CBC, electrolytes, type and screen, tox and ETOH screen Labs: CBC, electrolytes, type and screen, tox and ETOH screen CT Brain CT angiography or cerebral angiography (penetrating) MRI contraindicated if metallic fragments
Intubate GCS 8 or less or airway protection issue (Cricothyroidotomy if necessary) Intubate GCS 8 or less or airway protection issue (Cricothyroidotomy if necessary) Maintain BP 90 mmHg systolic C-spine precautions Tetanus prophylaxis Sterile dressing to wounds
ICP monitor in patients with GCS < 8 Hyperventilation not routinely recommended Elevate head of bed to 30 degrees Sedation Propofol Barbiturate Induced Coma Contraindicated in hypotension Mannitol Reduces ICP by reducing blood viscosity, improves cerebral blood flow Serum osmolality should not be > 320 Bolus dosing
GCS < 15 GCS < 15 Intoxicated Age > 55 or < 2 Amnesia to events Witnessed LOC (> 15 minutes) Repeated vomiting Evidence of basilar skull fracture Inability to recall 3 of 5 objects Coagulopathy Penetrating head injury
