Purpose: To investigate a correlation between the central venous minus arterial CO2 pressure to arterial minus central venous O2 content ratio (Pcv-aCO2/Ca-cvO2) combined with optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) in predicting prehospital elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) in traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients. Patients and Methods: This was a prospective observational study of all adult TBI patients from the surgical intensive care unit who underwent invasive ICP monitoring between January 2023 and December 2023. Using a Delica MVU-6300 machine with 14– 5 MHz linear probe to measure ONSD. We drew blood samples for arterial and central venous blood gases to measure and calculate the following indicators such as Pcv-aCO2, Ca-cvO2, and Pcv-aCO2/Ca-cvO2 ratio. ONSD and Pcv-aCO2/Ca-cvO2 were recorded during the first 3 days after admission. Simultaneous ICP values were gained from the invasive monitoring. Associations between ONSD, Pcv-aCO2/Ca-cvO2 and simultaneous ICP were explored by Spearman correlation analysis. We constructed an ROC curve to identify the ONSD and Pcv-aCO2/Ca-cvO2 cutoff for the evaluation of elevated ICP. Results: We included 54 patients aged mean 57.13 (standard deviation 4.02) years and 24 (44%) were male. A significant correlation was observed between ONSD and ICP (r = 0.74, P < 0.01). The AUC was 0.861 (95% CI: 0.727– 0.951), with a best cutoff value of 5.62 mm. Using a cutoff of 5.62mm, ONSD had a sensitivity of 92.8%, specificity of 80.4%. The Pcv-aCO2/Ca-cvO2 ratio also significantly correlated with ICP (r = 0.70, P < 0.01). The AUC was 0.791 (95% CI: 0.673– 0.889). The optimal Pcv-aCO2/Ca-cvO2 value for predicting elevated ICP was 1.98 mmHg/mL. Using a cutoff of 1.98 mmHg/mL, Pcv-aCO2/Ca-cvO2 had a sensitivity of 87.3%, specificity of 77.2%. The AUC for ONSD combined with Pcv-aCO2/Ca-cvO2 was 0.952 (95% CI: 0.869– 0.971), which had a sensitivity of 95.1%, specificity of 93.9%. Conclusion: Pcv-aCO2/Ca-cvO2 combined with ONSD performed best in predicting elevated intracranial pressure of patients with TBI in a prehospital setting. Our findings provide a crucial tool to improve earlier management of these patients in prehospital care, where the availability and utilization of invasive monitoring is limited. It could lead to significant changes in how TBI patients are monitored and treated before reaching a hospital. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
