Foreword I

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) constitutes a vast global health problem, impact-
ing over 50 million people worldwide each year and costing the global econ-
omy $400 million USD. TBI has been described as “the most complex disease
in our most complex organ.” We now recognize that it is a process, not an
event. A disproportionate burden of death and disability exists in low- and
middle-income countries (LMICs). Concerted efforts are required to address
this global pandemic. Concerted efforts in the sense of both international col-
laborations and of interactions between basic neuroscience and clinical
research.
This second edition of the textbook Management of Severe Traumatic
Brain Injury: Evidence, tricks, and pitfalls constitutes an amazing concerted
effort, bringing together contributions from world-leading experts, linking
basic neuroscience to clinical research and practice, and presenting this in a
very clear and educational format. The Scandinavian Neurotrauma Committee
(SNC) deserves a huge compliment for this achievement. Importantly, this
textbook also bridges the neurotrauma gap between high-income countries
(HICs) and LMICs, true to the long-standing interest of Scandinavian neuro-
surgery in promoting educational activities in Africa. Over 90% of neu-
rotrauma occur in LMICs, whilst over 90% of TBI publications originate
from HICs. LMICs are severely underrepresented in TBI research. Surgery
for neurotrauma represents more than 40% of neurosurgical procedures per-
formed all over the world and more than 60% in developing areas of the
world. Acquiring detailed knowledge of TBI, its pathophysiology and man-
agement, should thus be a priority for all neurosurgeons and neurosurgical
trainees. This knowledge needs to extend far beyond a narrow focus on surgi-
cal management.
As past and current presidents of the Neurotrauma Committee of the
World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies, we greatly welcome this new
edition for its pragmatic approach, which will serve clinicians and research-
ers across the world. This book is relevant to basic scientists who wish to

v
vi Foreword I

understand more about clinical dilemmas, to neurosurgical trainees across the


world, and also to seasoned experts like ourselves who are sure to find some-
thing new!
The book should belong on the shelf of every neurosurgical department.

Foreword II

The book is the result of a carefully concerted venture from the most dedi-
cated neurosurgeons, neurointensivists, neuroanaesthesiologists, trauma sur-
geons, neuroradiologists, rehabilitation physicians, and psychologist
throughout Scandinavia working on traumatic brain injury (TBI). Together,
and through the Scandinavian Neurotrauma Committee (SNC), they have
described the current knowledge—and sometimes the lack thereof—in a
structured and easily readable form. The book covers all topics from the epi-
demiology and organizational considerations of trauma management, via
evidence-based treatment strategies and monitoring, to long-term follow-up
and rehabilitation.
The first edition of this book was published in 2012. Although brain injury
research is clearly under-financed, the field is making rapid progress. The
SNC has published treatment guidelines for the management of minimal,
mild, and moderate head injuries, paediatric injuries, and the prehospital
management of severe TBI. This work has structured the treatment of these
patients throughout, and beyond, Scandinavia. Importantly, it has also fos-
tered a range of studies on implementation and follow-up of such guidelines,
giving rise to further improvements—as well as this second edition
Management of severe traumatic brain injury: Evidence, tricks, and pitfalls.
Overall, the SNC is a great example on how a regional multinational effort
can make an impact. The epidemiology of TBI is vastly different throughout
the globe, but the underlying challenges on organization, clinical decision-­
making, prevention of secondary damage, and rehabilitation remain very
similar.
This book covers the topic of severe head trauma in a well-written and
pedagogical way. It is a “must read” for all residents in neuro- or trauma sur-
gery, anaesthesiology, and intensive care medicine. It should also be an
important resource to all seasoned clinicians for updated information. The
layout of the book makes it a good everyday reference. This book should be
found in any and all units dealing with trauma patients.
I am very proud of the work performed by the SNC, and I am sure that you
will enjoy reading this book as much as I did.

In Memoriam Bertil Romner

Bertil Romner was one of the founders and a leading member of the
Scandinavian Neurotrauma Committee (SNC). He died of cancer when he
was 59 years old in August 2013. He was trained as a neurosurgeon at the
Department of Neurosurgery, Lund University Hospital, Sweden. He
defended his Ph.D. thesis in 1991, became associate professor in 1994 and
led the neurointensive care unit in Lund from 1996 to 2006. In 2006, he
became professor of neurosurgery at the University Hospital of Copenhagen,
Denmark. In 2010, he became professor of neurosurgery at the Lund
University, Sweden. From 1999 to his death, he held a second professorship
at the Arctic University of Norway in Tromsø, Norway.
Bertil will be remembered as an active scientist, supervisor, and inspirator.
He was a popular speaker with tremendous scenic talent and had a huge net-
work of collaborators and friends all over the world. He spent countless after-
noons together with members of his “research family,” and through his
leadership he raised the bar for scientific and clinical excellence. He was
internationally acclaimed for his contributions to neurosurgery and neuroin-
tensive care and published more than 150 articles. His main research field
was transcranial Doppler measurement of blood flow and, in more recent
years, noninvasive Doppler measurement of intracranial pressure. He also
made seminal contributions on treatment of subarachnoid hemorrhage, low-­
pressure hydrocephalus, and clinical use of and research on brain biomarkers,
such as S100B. Over the last years, his research was focused on management
of head injuries. Notably, he spear-headed the development of Scandinavian
guidelines for minimal, mild, and moderate head injuries published in 2013,
including for the first time a biomarker as an alternative to CT in the diagnos-
tic workup of head injuries. He was also the main organizer of several con-
gresses in Lund on clinical and research applications for biomarkers.
“I’m on my way,” Bertil often replied on the phone when he was late to a
meeting. He was always on the move. He constantly initiated new projects
and always participated with infectious enthusiasm. When matters became
difficult, he always said: “It’ll be solved” (“Det löser sig”). He was almost
always right.
Bertil truly enjoyed life. He had a great sense of humor and a strong social
competence. His warm personality and genuine consideration for others were
clearly reflected with patients, relatives, colleagues, and neighbors. In spite of
his disease, he refused to give up and kept on working full time as a professor,
both in clinic and research. Before he died, he said “I have so much undone.”

x In Memoriam Bertil Romner

Through Bertil’s death, we have lost a dear friend and a dedicated clinician
and scientist. He has left a great void that is impossible to fill. We all really
miss him and honor his memory.

Scandinavian Neurotrauma Committee

The Scandinavian Neurotrauma Committee (SNC; www.neurotrauma.nu)


was founded in 1998 after an initiative from the Scandinavian Neurosurgical
Society. The committee comprises dedicated neurosurgeons, neurologists,
intensivists, anaesthesiologists, radiologists, and paediatricians from
Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Sweden (population 27 million, 22 neuro-
surgical centers). The SNC is independent of industry funding and members
are supported by their respective institutions. The biannual Nordic
Neurotrauma Conference is hosted by the SNC.
The major objective of the SNC is to improve the management of neu-
rotrauma patients in the Nordic countries.

Introduction

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is an important public health problem. In


Europe, TBI has been estimated to annually account for 82,000 deaths and
2.1 million hospital discharges (Majdan et al. 2016). Many survivors suffer
long-term disabilities incurring significant personal and societal costs.
TBI incidence rates are increasing in elderly people, especially in high-­
income countries (HICs) (Roozenbeek et al. 2013). The situation in low- and
middle-income countries (LMICs) is particularly concerning, with a signifi-
cant increase in the number of TBIs coupled with substantial resource limita-
tions, poorly developed trauma management systems, and lack of qualified
medical personnel (Rubiano et al. 2015).
Many different TBI guidelines have been developed, all aiming to improve
the quality of care in and between prehospital services, primary hospitals,
neurosurgical departments, neurointensive care units, and rehabilitation facil-
ities. The Brain Trauma Foundation (BTF; www.braintrauma.org) has been
instrumental in this work. Their first evidence-based guidelines were pub-
lished in 1995 and have been updated several times, most recently in 2017.
The Scandinavian Neurotrauma Committee (SNC) published their first
guidelines for the management of minimal, mild, and moderate head injuries
in adults in 2000 (Ingebrigtsen et al. 2000a, b; Romner et al. 2000a, b). These
guidelines were extensively updated in 2013 (Undén et al. 2013), and sepa-
rate paediatric guidelines were published in 2016 (Åstrand et al. 2016). In
collaboration with the BTF, the SNC published guidelines for the prehospital
management of severe traumatic head injury in 2008 (Bellander et al. 2008;
Juul et al. 2008; Sollid et al. 2008).
The groundwork for the first edition of this book was started in 2007. The
major goal was to create a comprehensive, yet practical, manual for severe
TBI management throughout the entire chain of care. In this perspective, it
was of significant importance to recruit recognized professionals from most
centers in the Nordic countries, and from most of the involved specialties in
neurotrauma care. The first edition—Management of Severe Traumatic Brain
Injury: Evidence, Tricks, and Pitfalls—was published in 2012. It was a wel-
come addition to the TBI literature and has been actively used in many clinics
to improve TBI management. Two years ago, in conjunction with the first
Nordic Neurotrauma Conference, the SNC therefore decided to embark on
the second edition.

xv
xvi Introduction

The second edition is a major update on severe TBI. Most of the previous
chapters have undergone substantial revisions and 24 new chapters have been
added, reflecting both advances and key challenges within the field. The first
edition included 59 authors from 36 departments at 19 hospitals or universi-
ties in 5 countries. Notably, almost all of the authors from the first edition
have also contributed to this second edition, and more than 40 new authors
have participated.
The authors performed literature searches, not only with reference to the
BTF guidelines from 1995 and later revisions, but also within other areas of
the medical field, which is reflected in the index of this book. Based upon the
literature, clinical recommendations were made (influenced by grading sys-
tems such as the United States Preventive Services Task Force, the National
Health Services (UK) Centre for Reviews and Dissemination, the Cochrane
Collaboration and the GRADE guidelines (Guyatt et al. 2011)). In order to
achieve a high degree of clinical practicality, the classifications were refined
through an independent review process and consensus discussion in the SNC
group.
Levels of recommendation:

–– Level I recommendation: Based upon properly designed (prospective) ran-


domized controlled trials (the gold standard of clinical practice).
–– Level II recommendation: Prospectively collected data or retrospective
analyses concerning relevant studies and based on clearly reliable data in
well-defined populations. This includes prospective trials that did not meet
the strict criteria for Level I recommendations, as well as non-randomized
studies, observational studies, case-control studies, and cohort studies.
–– Level III recommendation: Descriptive studies, consensus reports, and
expert opinions.

Most of the provided recommendations are Level II or III. As a whole, the


scientific foundation for management of severe TBI is extensive, but rarely
grounded on high-quality evidence. These recommendation levels allow the
reader to appreciate the scientific background behind the recommendation
whilst also providing a practical and clinically useful message (in particular
in the absence of high-quality evidence).
Each chapter has been given a standardized setup, with the exception of a
few chapters where this approach was not practical. The reader is given initial
Recommendations. An Overview gives a short summary of the relevant litera-
ture with emphasis on more recent studies, also including older, but impor-
tant, research. A section with Tips, Tricks, and Pitfalls provides practical
advice and expert views. The relevant literature is reviewed in the Background
section. When applicable, a final section entitled Specific Paediatric Concerns
is provided.
The SNC hope that this updated book will prove useful for those faced
with the clinical and scientific problems of severely brain-injured patients.
Introduction xvii

The aim is to help establish a systematic and sustainable healthcare system,


including all aspects of TBI, from injury to long-term recovery.
This book would not have been possible without the initiative and support
from the SNC. We are grateful to all the authors for their enthusiasm and hard
work. We would like to thank all the section editors for their consistency and
imperative scientific input. We are also deeply indebted to all of the above
affiliated institutions for financial support and facilitation. Finally, we would
like to extend our sincerest appreciation to Springer International Publishing
AG for their invaluable editorial assistance.
