Abstract:ObjectiveExamining the size and reactivity of the pupils of traumatic brain injury coma patients is fundamental in the Neuro‐intensive care unit (ICU). Pupil parameters on admission predict long‐term clinical outcomes. However, little is known about the dynamics of pupillary parameters and their potential value for outcome prediction.MethodsThis study applied a time‐course analysis of pupillary signals (size and photo‐reactivity) in acute traumatic brain injury coma patients (n = 20) to predict outcome at 6 mo… Show more
