ABSTRACT
Acute brain injury is usually complicated by systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) which is initiated by cytokines and inflammatory mediators and induces a series of adverse physiological changes, culminating in the development of multiple organ failure. SIRS plays a pivotal role on the function of brain and extra cerebral organs, exacerbates the brain edema, and increases the septic rate. The diagnostic criteria and pathological courses of SIRS, and its relationship with acute brain injury and sepsis are briefly reviewed.
