The Focus of the Study is to Understand the Current Practice of Sodium Management in Patients With Acute Neurological Injury. |
| Purpose: |
|
This multicenter, observational, study will enroll severe neurologically injured patients
both prospectively and retrospectively. The aims are to identify the percent of
neurocritical care patients with sodium levels ≤ 135 mEq/L, describe treatment strategies
employed, determine the correlation of clinical factors (i.e. GCS, ICP) with serum sodium
concentrations in patients prior to sodium altering therapy, and evaluate outcomes through
evaluation of length of stay, discharge disposition, and modified Rankin score (mRS).
