Methods: Twenty four most severely head injured patients with GCS score of 3 who were admitted to our department from Jan 1995 to Mar 1998 were retrospectively analyzed. Results: Twelve cases (50.0%) survived, of which 7 cases (29.2%) had good recovery or moderate disability and 5 cases with severe deficits (20.8%), and the other 12 died (50.0%) after therapy. Conclusions: The prognosis of most severely head injured patients with GCS score of 3 could be improved by early intracranial hematoma removal with large decompressive craniotomies, early moderate hypothermia therapy, early assistant ventilation and effective prevention and treatment of complications.展开更多
