Neurosurgery and Medical Management of Severe Head Injury.

Neurosurgery and Medical Management of Severe Head Injury. Mil Med. 2018 Sep 01;183(suppl_2):67-72 Authors: McCafferty RR, Neal CJ, Marshall SA, Pamplin JC, Rivet D, Hood BJ, Cooper PB, Stockinger Z Abstract Management of the patient with moderate to severe brain injury in any environment can be time consuming and resource intensive. In the austere or hostile environment, the challenges to deliver care to this patient population are magnified. These guidelines have been developed by acknowledging commonly recognized recommendations for neurosurgical and neuro-critical care patients and augmenting those evaluations and interventions based on the experience of neurosurgeons, trauma surgeons, and intensivists who have delivered care during recent coalition conflicts.
