Abstract: RESUMO -Objetivo: Análise de 52 pacientes pediátricos com trauma de crânio (TCE) assistidos em Unidade de Terapia Intensiva, considerando fatores epidemiológicos do trauma, manifestações clínicas, aspectos tomográficos, variações hemodinâmicas e opções de tratamento da hipertensão intracraniana; avaliar a utilização da monitorização da pressão intracraniana (PIC). Método: Estudo retrospectivo de 52 pacientes com TCE e 17 destes submetidos a monitorização da PIC. Resultado: Houve predominância masculina e a méd… Show more

“…The management of patients with severe TBI starts with primary care, with appropriate support and transportation to specialized health care facilities. Initial treatment consists in maintaining the patient's physiological status and treating ICH, thus preserving CBF 10 . Ghajar and Hariri (1992) state that response to trauma is similar between adults and children, and that the self-regulating mechanism is maintained 5 .…”

“…Initial treatment should be aggressive in order to prevent hypoxia and hypotension. Maintenance of adequate arterial blood pressure preserves CBF and, consequently, cerebral perfusion 10 . ICP monitoring plays a crucial role in the neurological assessment of traumatically brain-injured patients.…”

“…Outra consequência do acumulo de secreção é o aumento na resistência das vias aéreas, o que pode dificultar a condução do ar até as áreas de troca gasosa, diminuindo a ventilação e aumentando o trabalho respiratório, também gerando hipoxemia (8,9). Por exemplo, nos pacientes neurológicos, essas alterações estão relacionadas a pior prognóstico, já que a recuperação das lesões no sistema nervoso central dependem, entre outros fatores, da adequada manutenção dos gases sanguíneos (10,11).…”
