Investigation of Mild Hypothermia Treatment on Severe Traumatie Brain Injuries / 医学研究杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the prognosis of mild hypothermia treatment in cases of severe traumatic brain injuries(sTBI),improve the knowledge of mild hypothermia treatment on brain injuries.Methods Cases were divided into 2 groupsmild hypothermia treatment group and control group.Mild hypothermia was applied to the cases of sTBI in mild hypothermia group.The prognosis was divided into five grades such as good recovery(GR),moderate disability(MD),severe disability(SD),persisted vegetative state(PVS)and death(D).Results In mild hypothermia group,there were 20 GR cases,5 MD,2 SD and 3 D cases,while in control group,there were 14 GR cases,9 MD,4 SD and 3 D cases.Conclusion Mild hypothermia treatment can improve the prognosis of sTBI.
