Head Trauma DR Petra SPBS
Head Trauma DR Petra SPBS
Head Trauma DR Petra SPBS
Composed of:
• Cranial Vault
• Cranial Base
The floor of the cranial cavity is
divided into 3 parts:
- Anterior fossa → frontal lobe
- Middle fossa → temporal lobe
- Posterior fossa → brain stem and
cerebellum
Anatomy
Meninges
1. Dura mater
• Subdural space is a potential space, where
hemorrhage can occur
2. Arachnoid mater
• Cerebrospinal fluid circulate between the
arachnoid and pia matter in the subarachnoid
space
3. Pia mater
• Pia mater connects directly to brain
parenchyme
Anatomy
Pathophysiology of Head Injury
• Brain Movement During Impact
• Acceleration and Deceleration
• Coup and Countrecoup
• Rotational Injury
• Impact between brain and skull
Newton’s Law
• Inertia: Newton’s law: force = mass x acceleration
• Slow heavy object
• Hit on the head
• Light accidents
• Fast light object
• Bullets
• Fast, heavy objects: not good.
• Shear forces Traction on neurons
• Effect on microvasculature
• Brain swelling and edema
What happens?
• Concussive force temporarily disturbs activity within brain stem
• Loss of consciousness
• Amnesia: retrograde or anterograde
• Post-Concussion syndrome
• Headache
• Memory
• Irritability
• Inability to concentrate
You can have skull fractures
• Skull X-Ray is useful
•Linear
•Depressed
•Diastatic
Brain is Beautiful
Secondary Brain Injury
• Damage to the brain AFTER the trauma: because of inadequate
management.
Pathological
Edema, Infarction
Secondary and chemical
ischemia,
Brain Injury changes to the
hypoxemia Herniation
BRAIN
Brain Edema
• Causing a repeated cycle of cell death
Increased ICP ICP (mmHg) No of Patients Mortality
Compensation:
Increased ICP Reduce CSF Fail: herniation
Reduce Venous blood
Brain herniation
• Types of brain herniation:
1. Uncal herniation
2. Central herniation
3. Cingulate herniation
4. Transcalvarial herniation
5. Upward herniation
6. Tonsillar herniation
Herniation causes Neurological Signs
• Cingulate
• Frontal lobe under falx cerebri: compresses ACA
• Hypoxia, edema, infarct frontal lobe
• Uncal
• Temporal lobe presses n. III, mesencephalon
• Anisocoria motoric paresis
• Central
• Brain into hiatus tentorium: compressing PCA
• Bad.
• Tonsillar
• Cerebellar tonsil pressed into foramen magnum, compressing medulla
• Dead.
Field Guide to Head Injury
Cedera Kepala:
Apa yang bisa anda lakukan?
• Primary survey
• Airway : Bebaskan jalan nafas
• Breathing : Pernafasan harus adekuat: perhatikan
saturasi O2
• Circulation : Pertahankan sistolik >90 mmHg
• Disability : GCS, lateralisasi
• Exposure : Adanya cidera lain: Multiple trauma!
Hiperventilasi
Manajemen Farmakologis
• Cairan isotonik
Manajemen Cairan
• Time Is Brain!
• Multiple trauma?
• Persiapan kelayakan operasi
• Lab: Hemoglobin, trombosit, faktor koagulasi, elektrolit
• Rontgen thorax
• Pada orang muda dengan trauma, mungkin dapat ditunda
• Craniotomy/Craniectomy
• Mengeluarkan lesi intrakranial
• Pemasangan drainase LCS
Decompressive Craniectomy
Bila tekanan intrakranial tidak terkontrol senjata terakhir
Contoh Kasus
Saat anda bertugas, datang pasien trauma.
• Laki-laki, 32 tahun. Penurunan kesadaran
• 2 hari yang lalu tabrakan motor, tanpa helm, sempat pingsan, sadar
lagi. Dibawa ke puskesmas. Sehari kemudian, meminta pulang.
• Pelan-pelan mengantuk, susah bangun, lalu dibawa ke RS anda.
• Primary:
A : Clear + C-Spine control
B : RR : 18x/mnt, gerakan dada simetris, nafas vesikuler
C : P : 68x/mnt, BP : 120/80 mmHg
D : GCS E3M5V2= 10, Pupil : isokor Ø 3 mm, RC +/+. Tanpa
paresis.
E : tidak tampak luka lain di sekujur badan
• Secondary:
Tampak hematoma di frontoparietal kanan. Ekskoriasi di wajah
kiri.
• Tekanan tinggi?
• Patologi apa yang
terlihat?
• SDH
• EDH
• ICH
• SAB
• Midline shift?
Manajemen pasien
• Cedera kepala sedang
• Jejas di kepala
• Tirah baring, elevasi kepala 30°
• Oksigen, cairan
• Monitoring ICP?
• Hyperventilasi?
• Apakah butuh pemeriksaan tambahan?
Manajemen Operatif
• Adanya lesi intrakranial
• EDH
• SDH
• ICH
• Membutuhkan pembedahan untuk menurunkan TTIK
EDH kanan
SDH Kiri
Semuanya sulit dilakukan bila sejak IGD,
penanganan tidak baik
• Apakah pasien bisa survive sampai kamar operasi?
• Bagaimana kondisi otak saat dioperasi?
•Epidural Hemorrhage
•Focal •Subdural Hemorrhage
•Intracerebral Hemorrhage
•Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
