Details and patient eligibility

About

A systolic blood pressure (SBP) lower than the heart rate (HR) could indicate a poor condition in trauma patients. In such scenarios, the reversed shock index (RSI) is <1, as calculated by the SBP divided by the HR. This study aimed to clarify whether RSI could be used to identify high-risk adult patients with isolated traumatic brain injury (TBI).

Enrollment: 1,216 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 20 to 100 years old

Volunteers: No Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

• Adult patients having isolated TBI with a head abbreviated injury scale (AIS) ≥ 3 and without severe injury to other regions (other AIS ≤ 1) were included

Exclusion criteria

• Patients with incomplete registered data were also excluded

Trial design

1,216 participants in 1 patient group

isolated traumatic brain injury

Description:

Adult patients having isolated traumatic brain injury with a head abbreviated injury scale (AIS) ≥ 3 and without severe injury to other regions (other AIS ≤ 1) were included. The patients were grouped and analyzed according to reversed shock index \< 1 or reversed shock index ≥ 1.

Treatment:

Other: reversed shock index < 1

Other: reversed shock index ≥ 1
