Association Between Serum Electrolyte Disturbances and Glasgow Coma Scale Score in Patients With Diffuse Axonal Injury
Background: Appropriate clinical measures to prevent secondary brain damage in traumatic brain injury are of critical importance. Objectives: This study aims to investigate the relationships between serum electrolyte disturbances and Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score in patients with Diffuse Axonal Injury (DAI) at the time of admission and discharge. Materials & Methods: In this retrospective cr...
متن کاملmental trauma experienced by caregivers of patients with diffuse axonal injury or severe traumatic brain injury
conclusions a long-term longitudinal study encompassing integrated research is needed to fully understand the traumatic experiences of caregivers. unless research on tbi or dai trauma is given its proper attention, the burden of trauma and injury on societies will continue to exacerbate globally. context as with care giving and rehabilitation in chronic illnesses, the concern with traumatic bra...
متن کاملCognitive sequelae of diffuse axonal injury.
BACKGROUND The results of recent studies on cognitive disability after traumatic brain injury-associated diffuse axonal injury (DAI) are inconsistent. In these studies, the diagnosis of DAI relied on cranial computed tomography. OBJECTIVE To further clarify the extent and severity of a possibly DAI-associated cognitive impairment by the use of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and detailed neu...
متن کاملDiffuse Axonal Injury in Head Trauma
Background: Diffuse axonal injury (DAI) is one of the most common and important pathologic features of traumatic brain injury (TBI). The susceptibility of axons to mechanical injury appears to be due to both their viscoelastic properties and their high organization in white matter tracts. Although axons are supple under normal conditions, they become brittle when exposed to rapid deformations a...
متن کاملDiffuse axonal injury in early infancy.
Diffuse axonal injury typified by retraction balls and axonal swellings was identified in the brains of a series of infants, 5 months old and younger, who had suffered closed head injuries. These axonal discontinuities were shown by using Nauomenko and Feigin's silver method, which is particularly useful for showing fine axons such as those found in the developing brain. Diffuse axonal injury i...
