Abstract
Objectives: Clinical management of traumatic brain injury (TBI) focuses on preventing secondary injury from cerebral edema and ongoing anoxic injury. Consensus guidelines recommend maintaining systolic blood pressure (SBP) ≥ 110 mmHg. A recent prehospital study suggested lowest adjusted mortality from 130 mmHg to 180 mmHg, suggesting the ideal pressure may be higher. This study aims to explore and externally validate the association between lowest out-of-hospital SBP and mortality in a nationwide database.
