Clinical role of low hemoglobin ratio in poor neurologic outcomes in infants with traumatic intracranial hemorrhage

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is the leading cause of pediatric morbidity and mortality worldwide, and half of all fatalities occur in infants aged less than 1 year. We analyzed 129 infants diagnosed with TBI complicated with intracranial hemorrhage confirmed by brain computed tomography. We defined...

Zusammenfassung:	Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is the leading cause of pediatric morbidity and mortality worldwide, and half of all fatalities occur in infants aged less than 1 year. We analyzed 129 infants diagnosed with TBI complicated with intracranial hemorrhage confirmed by brain computed tomography. We defined delta hemoglobin (ΔHB) as nadir HB - age specific mean HB, and the ratio of HB (%) as ΔHB/age specific mean HB x 100. Infants with poor neurologic outcomes had a lower admission HB and ΔHB (p
