More than 50 million TBIs occur internationally each year. Across all ages, TBI represents 30–40% of all injury-related deaths, and neurological injury is projected to remain the most important cause of disability from neurological disease until 2030. Severe TBI has a high mortality rate, estimated at 30–40% in observational studies on unselected populations. Survivors experience a substantial burden of physical, psychiatric, emotional, and cognitive disabilities, which disrupt the lives of individuals and their families, and impose huge costs on society. Wide variations in the clinical manifestations of TBI are attributable to the complexity of the brain and to the pattern and extent of damage. Over the past few years, a number of multicenter studies on the topic have emerged, helping to provide a better understanding of the condition. However, it is also clear that much remains to be learned.Traumatic Brain Injury MedicinebicsscClinical & internal medicinebicssctraumatic brain injuryscoring systemmodified early warning scoremortalitypsychometric propertiespatient-reported outcome measuresclassical test theorytranslationlinguistic validationoutcome instrumentscerebral oximetrynear-infrared spectroscopycerebrovascular autoregulationintracranial pressureacute brain injuryearly tracheostomylate tracheostomytracheostomy timingventilatory acquired pneumoniaprehospitaloxygenationhypoxiahyperoxiaemergency medical servicesosmolalitytraumatic brain injury (TBI)hypertonic salinemannitolosmolar gapbrain deathdeath by neurologic criteriacerebral blood flowCT angiographyCT perfusionCOVID-19 pandemictreatment efficiencyemergency departmentseizureQTc intervalspatial QTS-T anglebrain–heart interactioncranioplastycognitive improvementneuropsychologyMedicineClinical & internal medicineBadenes Rafaeledt1293300Badenes RafaelothBOOK9910637792603321Traumatic Brain Injury3022538UNINA
