Over the last several decades neurotrauma has become recognized as a significant contributor to poor health outcomes, with growing physical, cognitive, social, and economic burdens. Although it serves as a significant contributor globally, it disproportionately affects low- and middle-income countries (LMIC). In this manuscript, we will be comparing how neurotrauma is managed across the globe with special consideration on how variations in environment, resources, infrastructure, and access can influence patient care and outcomes. Moreover, we will be examining the challenges faced by health care systems in LMIC and exploring strategies for quality improvement.
在过去几十年里,神经创伤已被公认为是导致健康状况不佳的一个重要因素,其带来的身体、认知、社会和经济负担日益加重。尽管神经创伤在全球范围内都是一个重要因素,但它对低收入和中等收入国家(LMIC)的影响尤为严重。在本手稿中,我们将比较全球范围内神经创伤的管理方式,并特别考虑环境、资源、基础设施和医疗可及性的差异如何影响患者护理和治疗结果。此外,我们将研究低收入和中等收入国家医疗系统面临的挑战,并探索质量改进策略。
