Hemotransfusion and mechanical ventilation time are associated with intra-hospital mortality in patients with traumatic brain injury admitted to intensive care unit

Abstract: Objective To identify the factors associated with the intra-hospital mortality in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) admitted to intensive care unit (ICU). Methods The sample included patients with TBI admitted to the ICU consecutively in a period of one year. It was defined as variables the epidemiological characteristics, factors associated with trauma and variables arising from clinical management in the ICU. Results The sample included 87 TBI patients with a mean age of 28.93 ± 12.72 years, pr… Show more

“…Em estudo que identificou fatores associados a mortalidade intra-hospitalar em pacientes com traumatismo cranioencefálico em unidade de terapia intensiva, evidenciou uma correlação significativa entre a realização de hemotransfusão durante a internação e tempo de ventilação mecânica prolongada. A necessidade de transfusão de hemocomponentes está ligada à gravidade do quadro hemodinâmico, sendo requerida nos casos de perda maciça sanguínea, necessidade de melhora da perfusão tecidual de oxigênio ou reposição de hemocomponentes, como plaquetas, nos quadros trombocitopenicos (ALMEIDA et al, 2016).…”

“…Anemia has been associated with increased postoperative mortality after noncardiac surgery, as well as poorer outcomes after acute brain injury [59,60], but so is the use of blood transfusion, which appears to parallel an increased risk of intra-hospital mortality, infections, cerebral vasospasm, worsened cerebral autoregulation and other adverse events in neurosurgical patients [61][62][63][64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71]. The proposed mechanisms for these adverse outcomes are related to a number of changes in red blood cells (RBC) that occur with the aging of refrigerated blood (stored up to 42 days), collectively referred to as the "RBC storage lesion. "…”
