II. Epidemiology

  1. Incidence: 1.7 Million Traumatic brain injuries in U.S. per year
    1. Minor Head Injury in 75% of cases
    2. Hospitalizations: 275,000
    3. Deaths: 52,000

III. Pathophysiology

  1. Intracranial Pressure (ICP) association with injury
    1. Note measurements are in mmHg, not cmH2O
    2. Normal: 10 mmHg ICP
    3. Abnormal: 20 mmHg ICP
    4. Severe: 40 mmHg ICP
    5. Herniation: 50 mmHg ICP
  2. Cushing's Response
    1. Hypertensive response in face of increased ICP
    2. Helps maintain cerebral perfusion
    3. Do not use Antihypertensives to lower Blood Pressure
      1. Results in decreased brain perfusion
      2. Exception: Intracranial Bleeding (e.g. aneurysmal bleeding)

IV. Precautions: Cardiopulmonary status in Head Injury

  1. Target PaO2: 200-300 mmHg
    1. PaO2 <200 mmHg and PaO2 >300 mmHg are both associated with higher mortality
    2. Option 1: Wean FIO2 to 50%, but still maintain O2Sat at 99-100% or
    3. Option 2:
      1. Wean oxygen to point that O2Sat starts to drop below 99-100% and
      2. Then increase the delivered oxygen by 2-4 L/min above that level
  2. Avoid Hyperventilation following intubation
    1. Hyperventilation is associated with worse outcomes in Traumatic Brain Injury
    2. Monitor End-Tidal CO2 or capnometer following intubation
    3. Maintain pCO2 at 35-40 mmHg (avoid pCO2 <25 mmHg)
    4. Maintain Respiratory Rate at 10-12 breaths per minute
  3. Avoid Hypotension
    1. Maintain systolic Blood Pressure >=100-110 mmHg (ATLS-10)

    3. See NEXUS Criteria
  3. Mild Head Injury Imaging Indications
    1. See Head Injury CT Indications in Adults
    2. See Head Injury CT Indications in Children
      1. Consider Head MRI in children in place of Head CT (due to radiation risk)

IX. Management: Coagulopathy or oral Anticoagulant (e.g. Warfarin, Plavix)

  1. See Anticoagulant Reversal
  2. Approach based on evidence below
    1. Consider imaging all patients on Anticoagulants regardless of Head Injury severity
    2. Consider repeat CT Head imaging at 24 hours for patients on Warfarin regardless of signs or symptoms
    3. Consider 24 hour observation and repeat CT Head for elderly patients or those with INR >3
    4. Newman in Herbert (2014) EM:Rap 14(1): 6
  3. Even Minor Head Injury on oral Anticoagulants is associated with significant bleeding risk (often without red flags)
    1. Clopidogrel was associated with an initial 12% CNS HemorrhageIncidence, but no delayed bleeding
    2. Warfarin was associated with an initial 6% CNS HemorrhageIncidence with 0.6% having delayed bleeding
    3. Nishijima (2012) Ann Emerg Med 59(6): 460-8 [PubMed]
  4. Antiicoagulants (esp. Warfarin) are associated with delayed Intracranial Bleeding
    1. One study demonstrated 6% of patients at 24 hours
      1. Bleeding may be delayed as long as 1 week after Head Injury
      2. Most patients with CNS Hemorrhage on Warfarin had GCS 14-15 and no focal neurologic changes
      3. Menditto (2012) Ann Emerg Med 59(6): 451-5 [PubMed]
    2. Other studies demonstrated a 0.4 to 1.4% risk of delayed Intracranial Hemorrhage
      1. In these studies, delayed head bleeding required neurosurgical intervention is rare

    3. Conservative repeat Head CT protocol
      1. Repeat Head CT in 6-12 hours unless criteria below are met
        1. Most patients are observed in hospital while awaiting repeat Head CT
      2. Repeat Head CT not needed in minor Head Trauma if all of following criteria met (expert opinion)
        1. Initial Head CT negative (including no Skull Fracture and no Soft Tissue Injury) AND
        2. INR <2.5 AND
        3. Age < 65 years old AND
        4. Glasgow Coma Scale 15 AND
        5. Non-focal exam AND
        6. No persistent Emesis
    4. As of 2023, repeat Head CT after minor Trauma on Anticoagulants has become less common
      1. Delayed head bleed requiring intervention is rare following minor Head Trauma on Anticoagulants (see above)
      2. Early discharge after first CT relies on patient with normal baseline Neurologic Exam
      3. Use Shared Decision Making with patient regarding repeat Head CT
      4. Give the patient clear return precautions for changes in neurologic status

Ontology: Craniocerebral Trauma (C0018674)

Definition (MSHCZE) Úrazová poškození kraniálních a intrakraniálních struktur hlavy (např. MOZEK, KRANIÁLNÍ NERVY, MENINGY a další struktury hlavy). Zranění mohou být klasifikována podle toho, zda proniknou lebkou či nikoli nebo zda jsou spojena s krvácením.
Definition (MEDLINEPLUS)

Chances are you've bumped your head before. Usually, the injury is minor because your skull is hard and it protects your brain. But other head injuries can be more severe, such as a skull fracture, concussion, or traumatic brain injury.

Head injuries can be open or closed. A closed injury does not break through the skull. With an open, or penetrating, injury, an object pierces the skull and enters brain tissue. Closed injuries are not always less severe than open injuries.

Some common causes of head injuries are falls, motor vehicle accidents, violence, and sports injuries.

It is important to know the warning signs of a moderate or severe head injury. Get help immediately if the injured person has

  • A headache that gets worse or does not go away
  • Repeated vomiting or nausea
  • Convulsions or seizures
  • An inability to wake up
  • Dilation of one or both pupils of the eyes
  • Slurred speech
  • Weakness or numbness in the arms or legs
  • Loss of coordination
  • Increased confusion, restlessness, or agitation

NIH: National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke
Definition (NCI) A traumatic injury to the head.
Definition (LNC) Head trauma, especially basal skull/temporal bone fracture that requires hospitalization.
Definition (MSH) Traumatic injuries involving the cranium and intracranial structures (i.e., BRAIN; CRANIAL NERVES; MENINGES; and other structures). Injuries may be classified by whether or not the skull is penetrated (i.e., penetrating vs. nonpenetrating) or whether there is an associated hemorrhage.

Ontology: Traumatic Brain Injury (C0876926)

Definition (MEDLINEPLUS)

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) happens when a bump, blow, jolt, or other head Injury causes damage to the brain. Every year, millions of people in the U.S. suffer brain injuries. More than half are bad enough that people must go to the hospital. The worst injuries can lead to permanent brain damage or death. Half of all TBIs are from motor vehicle accidents. Military personnel in combat zones are also at risk.

Symptoms of a TBI may not appear until days or weeks following the injury. A concussion is the mildest type. It can cause a headache or neck pain, nausea, ringing in the ears, dizziness, and tiredness. People with a moderate or severe TBI may have those, plus other symptoms:

  • A headache that gets worse or does not go away
  • Repeated vomiting or nausea
  • Convulsions or seizures
  • Inability to awaken from sleep
  • Slurred speech
  • Weakness or numbness in the arms and legs
  • Dilated eye pupils

Health care professionals use a neurological exam and imaging tests to assess TBI. Serious traumatic brain injuries need emergency treatment. Treatment and outcome depend on how severe the injury is. TBI can cause a wide range of changes affecting thinking, sensation, language, or emotions. TBI can be associated with post-traumatic stress disorder. People with severe injuries usually need rehabilitation.
