[Effect of methylprednisolone and dexamethasone on the prognosis and EEG in severe craniocerebral injuries].
In a prospective investigation, the effect of dexamethasone in severe head injuries is compared with methylprednisolone. Twenty patients were examined by computer-tomography and electroencephalography. The EEG was evaluated by frequency analysis; a statistically significant difference could not be demonstrated between the dexamethasone and methylprednisolone group.
