[Cranio-cerebral trauma in publications by the Central hospital in the city of Aden].
An analysis of cranio-cerebral traumas in the Republic Yemen in 1998 has shown that the organization of medical care is unsatisfactory. Such situation led to address to the government of the Republic Yemen with a number of organizational suggestions. It is necessary to improve the material and technical basis of the city hospital of Aden and provide necessary diagnostic medical equipment, CT and MRT in particular. The neurosurgical department should be enlarged to 30 beds with a special department of resuscitation and correspondingly increased service personnel. It was proposed to consider the question of organization of emergency medical care (State or private) as well as medical units in distant regions with a full staff of specialists; to provide a calculation and registration of victims and dead of cranio-cerebral traumas at the State level; to organize a permanent preparing of all physician of the region to provide emergency aid to victims with cranio-cerebral traumas. Of great significance is not only the severity of the cranio-cerebral trauma, but also the time of admission to hospital, timely adequate therapy. As a rule most of such patients (75%) are admitted to hospital in a long time after trauma from several hours to several days. It is due to the absence of the service of emergency medical aid in the Republic, distant places of living in the region, highlands included.
