ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the influence of different methods of bandaging on the postoperative intracranial pressure of patients with severe brain injury patients after decompression craniectomy. Methods The standard decompressive craniectomy was use for the 36 cases of severe traumatic brain injury patients, and the intracranial pressure monitoring sensor probe was indwelled in operaion. Two different dressing methods of elasticity mesh cap and applicator were used for the patients respectively at 0h, 72h, 120h and 168h after operation, and the value of intracranial pressure was monitored and recorded. Result The intracranial pressure of elastic cap were significantly higher than the applicator respectively in operation immediate postoperative 72h, 120h and 168h (P<0.05), the difference was statistically significant. Conclusions The intracranial pressure of elastic cap is significantly higher than the applicator at different times after the surgery group.
