Prediction of Secondary Neurological Deterioration in Patients With Moderate Traumatic Brain Injury

Completed
Conditions
Traumatic Brain Injury
Registration Number
NCT04854954
Lead Sponsor
University Hospital, Brest
Brief Summary

Patients with moderate traumatic brain injury (mTBI) are 1,5 times more frequent than those with severe TBI and some of them will develop secondary neurologic deterioration (SND) within the first 7 days. However, identifying at risk patients of SND is still challenging. This study aimed to determine risk factors associated with SND after mTBI.
