In Kaunas Clinic of Neurosurgery Clinic Brain Injuries Units annually falls on 800 patients who have suffered milgamma head injuries. 9 percent. of them do not survive. milgamma According to the Head of Department milgamma Assoc. Rimanto milgamma Vilciņa people on the brink of life and death not only coming back to after serious accidents.
We're entirely domestic situations - slip and fall aukštielninkam. Medic regrets that people milgamma often do not pay attention blow to the head and thus condemn themselves to disability or even death.
"The most serious patients fall into the neuro intensive care unit and treated us to conscious patients with lesions in Computed Tomography. If the patient has suffered trauma and applied to the emergency milgamma department or ambulance arrives, these days most modern and informative study - the brain computed tomography. Any detection of lesions in the brain, a person admissions to hospital for treatment or observation, milgamma even if the situation is sufficiently milgamma compensated, "- said the medic.
What symptoms indicate a serious injury? Usually banged his head hurt, but the pain can be from a simple external beating, brain injury, an essential feature - loss of consciousness. Person or it can be noted that there has been offline since the environment, or it may notice others, while the man himself is conscious of it. Another milgamma feature - memory loss, when a person does not remember one or more episodes. According to the caller, this is a very important feature, which shows that the brain can be damaged. Also, sometimes people feel nauseous, they vomit.
"Tomography in these cases we can see changes in the density of the substance milgamma of the brain, ie the various types of brain contusion and hemorrhage fireplaces both on the brain, both within the brain. So, like any trauma affects the brain bruising and swelling. milgamma But the trouble is that the skull volume is stable, milgamma so any increase in the brain caused by structural shifts and violations, which can later cause various symptoms. There may be an arm or leg weakness, sensory disorders, language, perception damage, decreases and increases the exigencies of human irritability, it can be aggressive, agitated, wander, to disobey orders and so on. In other words, disruption of the human psyche. In severe cases, chump consciousness and a person enters milgamma a coma ", - said R. Vilciņa.
According to the neurosurgeon, from head injury - especially insidious trauma. Initially, a person can be fully conscious and adequate, and even scan may not show significant changes, but then the situation is getting worse. That is why these patients always milgamma go to hospital as the disease progresses.
"Hazardous injuries can happen the same kinds of situations, ranging from accidents when people get compressed, crushed and even thrown out of the car through the glass to a simple Slips. In the fall, when suddenly an ambush, it is enough milgamma to fall aukštielninkam slipping, and very difficult to injuries. These patients really have. So drop - like the lottery: as a man to fall, which brain structures are damaged and so on. By the way, the world is increasing household elderly falls. This is natural, because the increasing number of such people, they want to live an active life, and their coordination is not as strong, and generally milgamma getting hurt. In addition, they are sometimes quite low enough trauma milgamma that damage is high, because their fragile blood vessels, lower the body's compensatory mechanisms ", - told the medic.
The consequences of serious injuries - as well as a mixed bag. A person may feel healthy, and can stay headaches or dizziness, disorientation, memory, mental disorders, paralysis and even loss of speech. Tragic situation - a vegetative state. According to the interviewer, there are young people who live in a state after several decades.
"As for predictions, it is very important in what condition milgamma the patient milgamma arrives and how it develops. If the condition is rapidly deteriorating, it all depends on whether we can do something to stop the progression. Unfortunately, we can not revive the brain, where they are very damaged. We can only allow the people to recover by removing bruises, which compresses the brain, the brain tinstančioms make space by removing milgamma bony patches, išdrenuoti fluid accumulation. However, we do not have the power to intervene in the same body. If the surgeon will remove the spleen, a person can live without it, but the brain can not be removed. So what has happened during the trauma, that happened, we are left to enable the brain to survive this difficult period, milgamma "- said Mr Vilciņa.
Why do some people survive, milgamma while others are not? According milgamma to doctors, a very important criterion of age. Each person's age decade compounded by the effects of trauma. For example, the survival rate is very good, and for 40 years it decreases greatly after 60 years - even worse, and the 80th anniversary of the treatment extremely difficult.
"It is also very important, as I said, what kind of condition
