ABSTRACT: Introduction: To investigate a more reasonable treatment strategy for
traumatic brain injury in the critical surgery state and increase the clinical
therapeutic effects. Methods: Fifty-nine patients with traumatic brain injury
in the critical operation state were randomly divided into an experimental
group (n = 31) and a control group (n = 28). Patient’s prognosis was
compared between these two groups. Results: According to the Glasgow Outcome
Scale scoring, 23 patients presented with low disability, 7 with moderate
disability, 1 with severe disability, and no patients were in the persistent
vegetative state or died in the experimental group; 14 patients presented with
low disability, 8 with moderate disability, 3 with severe disability, 2 were in
the vegetative state, and 1 died in the control group. Patient’s prognosis in
the experimental group was significantly better than that in the control group
(P gs is of significance in the management of patients with
traumatic brain injury in the critical surgery state.
