Study of Coagulopathy after Mild Traumatic Brain Injury and its Effect on Patient?s Outcome

Dr. Aafreen Syed, Dr. Amit Kumar Mukherjee, Dr. Yuvraj Kumar Churendra

Abstract: This prospective cohort study investigates the relationship between coagulopathy and mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) in patients admitted to the neurosurgery and emergency departments of a medical institute. Over a period of 1.5 years, data from 90 mTBI patients were analyzed to determine if coagulopathy influences patient outcomes. Key findings include the relationship between age, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scores, and coagulopathy indicators, with results showing a weak but notable correlation between age and INR levels upon admission. The study concludes that while mild TBI may present certain coagulation abnormalities, these factors do not significantly impact patient discharge outcomes. Result: No positive association between coagulopathy after mild traumatic brain injury

Keywords: Traumatic brain injury, Coagulopathy, Glasgow Coma Scale, Head trauma, Patient outcome
