[Pathogenesis and prevention of pneumonia in patients with severe craniocerebral trauma]. 1990

A G Korotkevich, and V V Kriuchkov, and Iu A Churliaev

The results of endoscopic studies of the bronchial tree have been assessed in 150 patients during the acute period of craniocerebral trauma. A correlation has been established between the side and degree of the brain stem damage and the onset of asymmetrical bronchomalacia. The development and signs of the obstructive syndrome within a 2-week post-traumatic period have been demonstrated. The incidence of destructive pneumonia has reduced four-fold. It is concluded that endoscopy of the bronchial tree is highly effective for the prevention of pneumonia in the acute period of severe craniocerebral trauma.

D001930 Brain Injuries Acute and chronic (see also BRAIN INJURIES, CHRONIC) injuries to the brain, including the cerebral hemispheres, CEREBELLUM, and BRAIN STEM. Clinical manifestations depend on the nature of injury. Diffuse trauma to the brain is frequently associated with DIFFUSE AXONAL INJURY or COMA, POST-TRAUMATIC. Localized injuries may be associated with NEUROBEHAVIORAL MANIFESTATIONS; HEMIPARESIS, or other focal neurologic deficits.
