Abstract

Background

Delirium remains understudied after traumatic brain injury (TBI). We sought to identify independent predictors of delirium among intensive care unit (ICU) patients with TBI.

Methods

This single-center retrospective cohort study evaluated adult patients with TBI requiring ICU admission. Outcomes included delirium days within the first 14 days, as assessed by the Confusion Assessment Method-ICU (CAM-ICU). Models were adjusted for age, sex, insurance, Marshall head computed tomography classification, presence of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), Injury Severity Score (ISS), need for cardiopulmonary resuscitation, maximum admission Glasgow Coma motor score, glucose level, hemoglobin level, and pupil reactivity.

Results

Delirium prevalence was 60%, with a median duration of 4 days (interquartile range: 2–8) among ICU patients with TBI (n = 2,664). Older age, higher ISS, maximum motor score < 6, Marshall class II–IV, and SAH were associated with risk of increased delirium duration (all p < 0.001).

Conclusions

In this large cohort, ICU delirium after TBI affected three of five patients for a median duration of 4 days. Age, general injury severity, motor score, and features of intracranial hemorrhage were predictive of more TBI-associated delirium days. Given the high prevalence of ICU delirium after TBI and its impact on hospitalization, further work is needed to understand the impact of delirium and TBI on outcomes and to determine whether delirium risk can be minimized.

Kaliumhaltiges Kochsalz schützt vor Schlaganfallrezidiven

Erhalten Menschen nach einem Schlaganfall statt normalem Kochsalz eine kaliumhaltige Alternative, reduziert dies sowohl das Risiko für erneute ischämische und hämorrhagische Insulte als auch die Gesamtmortalität. Dafür sprechen Ergebnisse einer großen randomisierten Studie.

Der Mann mit der Alzheimermutation, der keine Demenz bekommt

Nur sehr selten werden Menschen mit einer Alzheimermutation von einer familiären Demenz verschont, was meist an protektiven Genvarianten liegt. Ein über 70-jähriger Mann stellt die Forschung jedoch vor ein Rätsel. Vielleicht hat ihm die Arbeit in großer Hitze geholfen.

Auch nach TIA kommt es zu kognitivem Abbau

Trotz raschem und vollständigem Verschwinden der Symptome bergen auch transitorische ischämische Attacken das Risiko langfristigen kognitiven Abbaus, wie eine Studie zeigt. Die Größenordnung gleicht jener nach einem Schlaganfall.

Schlaganfall oder Schlaganfall-Imitator?

Ein breites Spektrum von Erkrankungen kann einen Schlaganfall vortäuschen. Bei der notwendigen schnellen Unterscheidung zwischen solchen „stroke mimics“ und echten Schlaganfällen können einige klinische Faktoren und Symptome unterstützend herangezogen werden.
