Clinical Characteristics and Mortality of Neurocritical Care Patients With Post-traumatic Cerebral Venous Outflow Compromise
Among those at risk, patients with evidence of post-traumatic VOC may have had higher short-term mortality, but VOCs did not increase long-term mortality rates compared with those without VOC. Patients with an occlusive thrombosis were more likely to undergo decompressive craniectomy. Most patients with a DVST received prophylactic rather than treatment-dose antithrombosis. Further studies are required to determine the optimal management of post-traumatic VOC.
