Analysis and prevention of cerebral infarction in patients with traumatic brain injury.
We reviewed the clinical data of 32 cases of cerebral infarction after traumatic brain injury, aiming to explore the pathogenesis and assess the prognosis of the condition so as to find effective prevention and treatment measures. According to Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) scores, 12 patients were classified as having good recovery, 5 moderate neurological deficit, 4 severe neurological deficit, and 3 in vegetative state. Death occurred in 8 cases. These results indicate the mortality and morbidity of this condition are relatively high, and early diagnosis and treatment may improve prognosis, which should await further investigation.
