ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the injury characteristics and prognostic risk factors of patients with craniocerebral injury so as to provide some suggestions for the improvement of medical prevention,intervention and treatment measures.Methods Trauma database system was applied to collect the medical records of 661 patients with traumatic brain injury admitted to the Department of Neurosurgery of 105th Hospital of Hefei in 2009.Their general conditions,injury characteristics and outcomes were analyzed and the risk factors affecting their outcomes were investigated by Logistic regression analysis.Results Of the patients with craniocerebral injury,the males accounted for 70％ (463/661).The patients at 45 years old or so had the highest incidence of craniocerebral injury.Patient number in the second half of one year was 1.65 times more than that in the first half of one year (412/249 ).Most patients were injured from traffic accidents (87.7％,580/661 ) and 512 patients (77.5％) suffered from multiple injuries.ISS,injury causes,age and injury incidence quarters showed close correlation with the final outcome.Conclusions The patients with craniocerebral injury demonstrates distinctive characteristics in aspects of gender,age,incidence time,injury causes,and multiple injuries,but the ultimate outcomes are related to the injury severity,injury causes,age and other factors.
