Background:We performed the current study to find out if there is a correlation between the Bispectral index value and glasgow coma scale in isolated head trauma patients undergoing surgical intervention.
Aim of the Study: Find out if bispectral index value correlate with Glasgow coma scale.Patients and Methods: A total of 40 patients who were admitted in emergency room with isolated head trauma glasgow coma scale and bispectral index readings were recorded at time of arrival, immediately post-operative, after 3 days and 2 weeks post admission.Results: We found that there was a strong correlation between glasgow coma scale and bispectral index readings.Correlation coefficient was 0.956 and p-value <-0.001.
Conclusion:We conclude from this study that there is a strong correlation between glasgow coma scale and bispectral index readings.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
