Abstract
Traumatic brain injury (TBI), a leading cause of death and poor neurological outcomes in trauma patients, is a primary cause of severe disability among survivors and a major public health burden globally. Optimal haemodynamic management is a keystone of care in avoiding secondary brain injury, and contributes to minimising mortality and morbidity. Although some important progress has been achieved, a paucity of high-quality recommendations still exists. The purpose of this article is to review the current knowledge on TBI-associated haemodynamic tenets, in order to summarise the most important aspects of this heterogeneous and complex field.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
