A group of 89 severely head injured patients was tested psychologically within two years of injury, and test performance was related to indices of brain damage. Duration of coma (Glasgow Coma Scale) bore little relationship to later cognitive outcome but duration of post-traumatic amnesia significantly predicted cognitive performance. Patients with an operated haematoma performed better than non-operated cases, reflecting a selection bias. The side of haematoma was not significant, nor were the presence, or type, or side of skull fracture.
一组89名重度颅脑损伤患者在受伤后两年内接受了心理测试,测试表现与脑损伤指标相关。昏迷持续时间(格拉斯哥昏迷量表)与后期认知结果关系不大,但创伤后遗忘症的持续时间显著预测了认知表现。有血肿手术的患者比未手术的患者表现更好,这反映了一种选择偏倚。血肿的位置并不显著,颅骨骨折的存在、类型或位置也不显著。
