Comparative effectiveness research (CER) has been proposed as a framework to provide evidence for optimal care for TBI patients. The first step in CER is to map the existing variation. The aim of current study is to quantify variation in general structural and process characteristics among centers participating in the Collaborative European NeuroTrauma Effectiveness Research in Traumatic Brain Injury (CENTER-TBI) study. Methods: We designed a set of 11 provider profiling questionnaires with 321 questions about various aspects of TBI care, chosen based on literature and expert opinion. After pilot testing, questionnaires were disseminated to 71 centers from 20 countries participating in the CENTER-TBI study. Reliability of questionnaires was estimated by calculating a concordance rate among 5% duplicate questions. Results: All 71 centers completed the questionnaires. Median concordance rate among duplicate questions was 0.85. The majority of centers were academic hospitals (n = 65, 92%), designated as a level I trauma center (n = 48, 68%) and situated in an urban location (n = 70, 99%). The availability of facilities for neuro-trauma care varied across centers; e.g. 40 (57%) had a dedicated neuro-intensive care unit (ICU), 36 (51%) had an in-hospital rehabilitation unit and the organization of the ICU was closed in 64% (n = 45) of the centers. In addition, we found wide variation in processes of care, such as the ICU admission policy and intracranial pressure monitoring policy among centers. Conclusion: Even among high-volume, specialized neurotrauma centers there is substantial variation in structures and processes of TBI care. This variation provides an opportunity to study effectiveness of specific aspects of TBI care and to identify best practices with CER approaches.

Abstract

Contains fulltext : 215205.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Open Access) Background: Severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) is associated with a high mortality rate and those that survive commonly have permanent disability. While there is a broad consensus that appropriate prehospital treatment is crucial for a favorable neurological outcome, evidence to support currently applied treatment strategies is scarce. In particular, the relationship between prehospital treatments and patient outcomes is unclear. The BRAIN-PROTECT study therefore aims to identify prehospital treatment strategies associated with beneficial or detrimental outcomes. Here, we present the study protocol. Study Protocol: BRAIN-PROTECT is the acronym for BRAin INjury: Prehospital Registry of Outcome, Treatments and Epidemiology of Cerebral Trauma. It is a prospective observational study on the prehospital treatment of patients with suspected severe TBI in the Netherlands. Prehospital epidemiology, interventions, medication strategies, and nonmedical factors that may affect outcome are studied. Multivariable regression based modeling will be used to identify confounder-adjusted relationships between these factors and patient outcomes, including mortality at 30 days (primary outcome) or mortality and functional neurological outcome at 1 year (secondary outcomes). Patients in whom severe TBI is suspected during prehospital treatment (Glasgow Coma Scale score

Abstract

Executive summary A concerted effort to tackle the global health problem posed by traumatic brain injury (TBI) is long overdue. TBI is a public health challenge of vast, but insufficiently recognised, proportions. Worldwide, more than 50 million people have a TBI each year, and it is estimated that about half the world’s population will have one or more TBIs over their lifetime. TBI is the leading cause of mortality in young adults and a major cause of death and disability across all ages in all countries, with a disproportionate burden of disability and death occurring in low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs). It has been estimated that TBI costs the global economy approximately $US400 billion annually. Deficiencies in prevention, care, and research urgently need to be addressed to reduce the huge burden and societal costs of TBI. This Commission highlights priorities and provides expert recommendations for all stakeholders— policy makers, funders, health-care professionals, researchers, and patient representatives—on clinical and research strategies to reduce this growing public health problem and improve the lives of people with TBI. The epidemiology of TBI is changing: in high-income countries, the number of elderly people with TBI is increasing, mainly due to falls, while in LMICs, the burden of TBI from road traffic incidents is increasing. Data on the frequency of TBI and TBI-related deaths and on the economic impact of brain trauma are often incomplete and vary between countries. Improved, accurate epidemiological monitoring and robust healtheconomic data collection are needed to inform healthcare policy and prevention programmes. Highly developed and coordinated systems of care are crucial for management of patients with TBI. However, in practice, implementation of such frameworks varies greatly and disconnects exist in the chain of care. Optimisation of systems of care should be high on the policy agenda and could yield substantial gains in terms of both patient outcomes and costs to society. TBI is a complex condition, and strong evidence to support treatment guidelines and recommendations is scarce. Most multicentre clinical trials of medical and surgical interventions have failed to show efficacy, despite promising preclinical results. At the bedside, treatment strategies are generally based on guidelines that promote a one-size-fits-all approach and are insufficiently targeted to the needs of individual patients. Attempts to individualise treatment are challenging owing to the diversity of TBI, and are hampered by the use of simplistic methods to characterise its initial type and severity. Advances in genomics, blood biomarkers, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and pathophysiological monitoring, combined with informatics to integrate data from multiple sources, offer new research avenues to improve disease characterisation and monitoring of disease evolution. These tools can also aid understanding of disease mechanisms and facilitate targeted treatment strategies for individual patients. Individualised management in the postacute phase and evaluation of the effectiveness of treatment and care processes depend on accurate quantification of outcomes. In practice, however, the use of simplistic methods hinders efforts to quantify outcomes after TBI of all severities. Development and validation of multidimensional approaches will be essential to improve measurement of clinical outcomes, for both research and patient care. In particular, we need to find better ways to characterise the currently under-recognised risk of long-term disabling sequelae in patients with relatively mild injuries. Prognostic models are important to help clinicians to provide reliable information to patients and relatives, and to facilitate comparative audit of care between centres and countries. There is an urgent need for further development, validation, and implementation of prognostic models in TBI, particularly for less severe TBI. This multitude of challenges in TBI—encompassing systems of care, clinical management, and research strategy—demands novel approaches to the generation of new evidence and its implementation in clinical practice. Comparative effectiveness research (CER) offers opportunities to capitalise on the diversity of TBI and systems of care and enables assessment of therapies in real-world conditions; high-quality CER studies can provide strong evidence to support guideline recommendations. The global challenges posed by TBI necessitate global collaborations and a change in research culture to endorse broad data sharing. This Commission covers a range of topics that need to be addressed to confront the global burden of TBI and reduce its effects on individuals and society: epidemiology (section 1); health economics (section 2); prevention (section 3); systems of care (section 4); clinical management (section 5); characterisation of TBI (section 6); outcome assessment (section 7); prognosis (section 8); and new directions for acquiring and implementing evidence (section 9). Table 1 summarises key messages from the Commission and provides recommendations to advance clinical care and research in TBI. We must increase awareness of the scale of the challenge posed by TBI. If we are to tackle the individual and societal burden of TBI, these efforts need to go beyond a clinical and research audience and address the public, politicians, and other stakeholders. We need to develop and implement policies for better prevention and systems of care in order to improve outcomes for individuals with TBI. We also need a commitment to substantial long-term investment in TBI research across a range of disciplines to determine best practice and facilitate individualised management strategies. A combination of innovative research methods and global collaboration, and ways to effectively translate progress in basic and clinical research into clinical practice and public health policy, will be vital for progress in the field.

Abstract

Source at https://doi.org/10.1186/s13054-018-2241-4. Licensed CC BY-NC-ND 4.0. Background: We aimed to investigate the extent of the agreement on practices around brain death and postmortem organ donation. Methods: Investigators from 67 Collaborative European NeuroTrauma Effectiveness Research in Traumatic Brain Injury (CENTER-TBI) study centers completed several questionnaires (response rate: 99%). Results: Regarding practices around brain death, we found agreement on the clinical evaluation (prerequisites and neurological assessment) for brain death determination (BDD) in 100% of the centers. However, ancillary tests were required for BDD in 64% of the centers. BDD for nondonor patients was deemed mandatory in 18% of the centers before withdrawing life-sustaining measures (LSM). Also, practices around postmortem organ donation varied. Organ donation after circulatory arrest was forbidden in 45% of the centers. When withdrawal of LSM was contemplated, in 67% of centers the patients with a ventricular drain in situ had this removed, either sometimes or all of the time. Conclusions: This study showed both agreement and some regional differences regarding practices around brain death and postmortem organ donation. We hope our results help quantify and understand potential differences, and provide impetus for current dialogs toward further harmonization of practices around brain death and postmortem organ donation.

Abstract

Worldwide, different strategies are being applied for symptomatic chronic subdural hematoma (CSDH). The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of two treatment strategies for symptomatic CSDH: initial dexamethasone (DXM) therapy versus primary surgery by burr hole craniostomy (BHC). We retrospectively collected data for 120 symptomatic CSDH patients in two neurotrauma centers between 2014 and 2016, each with their own treatment protocol. Sixty patients received primary BHC (center A), and another 60 initial DXM therapy (center B). Primary outcome was evaluated by dichotomized modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score (0-3 and 4-6) and Markwalder Grading Scale (MGS) score at 3 months. Secondary outcomes were additional interventions, CSDH recurrence, mortality, complications, and duration of hospital stay. Baseline characteristics were similar in both groups. At 3 months, a favorable mRS score (0-3) was observed in 70% and 76% of patients in cohort A and B, respectively (odds ratio [OR] 0.77, 95% CI 0.30-1.98; p = 0.59). A favorable MGS score (0-1) was observed in 96% of patients in both groups (OR 0.98, 95% CI 0.45-2.15; p = 0.95). CSDH recurrence was 12% in cohort A and 22% in cohort B (p = 0.15). Mortality was 10% in both cohorts. In cohort B, additional surgery was performed in 83% at a median of 6 days, and significantly more patients had complications (55% vs. 35%, p = 0.02), a prolonged hospitalization (10 vs. 5 days; p = 0.02), and one or more follow-up cranial CT's (85% vs. 48%; p

Abstract

Introduction: The strength of evidence underpinning care and treatment recommendations in traumatic brain injury (TBI) is low. Comparative effectiveness research (CER) has been proposed as a framework to provide evidence for optimal care for TBI patients. The first step in CER is to map the existing variation. The aim of current study is to quantify variation in general structural and process characteristics among centers participating in the Collaborative European NeuroTrauma Effectiveness Research in Traumatic Brain Injury (CENTER-TBI) study. Methods: We designed a set of 11 provider profiling questionnaires with 321 questions about various aspects of TBI care, chosen based on literature and expert opinion. After pilot testing, questionnaires were disseminated to 71 centers from 20 countries participating in the CENTER-TBI study. Reliability of questionnaires was estimated by calculating a concordance rate among 5% duplicate questions. Results: All 71 centers completed the questionnaires. Median concordance rate among duplicate questions was 0.85. The majority of centers were academic hospitals (n = 65, 92%), designated as a level I trauma center (n = 48, 68%) and situated in an urban location (n = 70, 99%). The availability of facilities for neuro-trauma care varied across centers; e.g. 40 (57%) had a dedicated neuro-intensive care unit (ICU), 36 (51%) had an in-hospital rehabilitation unit and the organization of the ICU was closed in 64% (n = 45) of the centers. In addition, we found wide variation in processes of care, such as the ICU admission policy and intracranial pressure monitoring policy among centers. Conclusion: Even among high-volume, specialized neurotrauma centers there is substantial variation in structures and processes of TBI care. This variation provides an opportunity to study effectiveness of specific aspects of TBI care and to identify best practices with CER approaches.

Abstract

Item does not contain fulltext A 75-year-old man had progressive difficulty with walking, intention tremor, ataxia, and mild cognitive deficits. MRI scan ofthe brain showed symmetrical hyperintensities in the middle cerebellar peduncles. DNA analysis ofthe fragile-X gene revealed an expansion of 150-200 repetitions in the FMR1-gene, compatible with a premutation in the fragile-X gene. Two years later, after progression of the symptoms, the patient was admitted to a nursing home. The clinical picture of intention tremor, parkinsonism and ataxia with white matter lesions and atrophy on MRI occurs in carriers of this premutation and has recently been described as the fragile-X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome. Recognition of this clinical picture is important for the patient but also for the relatives, since female carriers of the premutation have an increased risk of offspring with the fragile-X syndrome.

Abstract

“Third time lucky” is the saying, but for the third Human Power Team it almost turned out as a year for nothing. The team has been attempting to set the world record for the fastest bicycle powered only by human muscles for two years already. This endeavor to let a Dutchman be the fastest human on earth resulted in a marvelous year with many ups and downs and a world record.

Abstract

Introduction: The strength of evidence underpinning care and treatment recommendations in traumatic brain injury (TBI) is low. Comparative effectiveness research (CER) has been proposed as a framework to provide evidence for optimal care for TBI patients. The first step in CER is to map the existing variation. The aim of current study is to quantify variation in general structural and process characteristics among centers participating in the Collaborative European NeuroTrauma Effectiveness Research in Traumatic Brain Injury (CENTER-TBI) study. Methods: We designed a set of 11 provider profiling questionnaires with 321 questions about various aspects of TBI care, chosen based on literature and expert opinion. After pilot testing, questionnaires were disseminated to 71 centers from 20 countries participating in the CENTER-TBI study. Reliability of questionnaires was estimated by calculating a concordance rate among 5% duplicate questions. Results: All 71 centers completed the questionnaires. Median concordance rate among duplicate questions was 0.85. The majority of centers were academic hospitals (n = 65, 92%), designated as a level I trauma center (n = 48, 68%) and situated in an urban location (n = 70, 99%). The availability of facilities for neuro-trauma care varied across centers; e.g. 40 (57%) had a dedicated neuro-intensive care unit (ICU), 36 (51%) had an in-hospital rehabilitation unit and the organization of the ICU was closed in 64% (n = 45) of the centers. In addition, we found wide variation in processes of care, such as the ICU admission policy and intracranial pressure monitoring policy among centers. Conclusion: Even among high-volume, specialized neurotrauma centers there is substantial variation in structures and processes of TBI care. This variation provides an opportunity to study effectiveness of specific aspects of TBI care and to identify best practices with CER approaches.

Abstract

Item does not contain fulltext, The Dutch dementia guideline has been extended to include recommendations in the area of psychosocial interventions for patients, caregivers and professionals.- The diagnostic recommendations in the revised directive are based on a stepwise work-up with the aim of establishing the cause of the dementia. This is guided by the recent diagnostic criteria, evidence of the diagnostic value of additional investigations, and the patient's wishes.- Although there have been no major breakthroughs in the treatment of patients with Alzheimer's disease in recent years, the revised guideline also contains important new recommendations in this area. For example, it includes recommendations on administration routes (first-choice use of patches or preparations with slow release of cholinesterase inhibitors), the use of combination therapy (not prescribing memantine in combination with cholinesterase inhibitors) and regular monitoring of the effectiveness of antipsychotics and cholinesterase inhibitors.- The guideline (in Dutch) can be found at www.richtlijnendatabase.nl (search for 'dementie') and will be actively implemented.

30. Progressive ataxia and cognitive deficits caused by a premutation in the fragile-X gene

Abstract

A 75-year-old man had progressive difficulty with walking, intention tremor, ataxia, and mild cognitive deficits. MRI scan of the brain showed symmetrical hyperintensities in the middle cerebellar peduncles. DNA analysis of the fragile-X gene revealed an expansion of 150-200 repetitions in the FMR1-gene, compatible with a premutation in the fragile-X gene. Two years later, after progression of the symptoms, the patient was admitted to a nursing home. The clinical picture of intention tremor, parkinsonism and ataxia with white matter lesions and atrophy on MRI occurs in carriers of this premutation and has recently been described as the fragile-X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome. Recognition of this clinical picture is important for the patient but also for the relatives, since female carriers of the premutation have an increased risk of offspring with the fragile-X syndrome.

Abstract

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Some cerebral aneurysms that have been coiled reopen over time and additional treatment should be considered to reduce the risk of recurrent hemorrhage. Our purpose was to assess procedural complications and angiographic results of additional coiling in patients with previously coiled but reopened aneurysms and to evaluate protection against (re)bleeding. METHODS: We compared procedural complications of initial coiling of 488 aneurysms in 439 patients with those of 53 additional coiling procedures in 41 reopened aneurysms in 40 patients. Angiographic results of additional coiling were assessed. We compared episodes of (re)bleeding in patients with complete or near-complete aneurysm occlusion after additional coiling with those of patients with incomplete aneurysm occlusion at 6-month follow-up angiography who were not additionally treated or who still had incomplete occlusion after additional coiling. RESULTS: Thirty-five procedural complications occurred in 488 initial coiling procedures, and no complications occurred in 53 additional procedures. Complete or near-complete angiographic occlusion after additional coiling was obtained in 31 (76%) of 41 aneurysms. Rebleeding occurred in two of 29 patients with incomplete aneurysm occlusion but in none of the 31 patients with complete or near-complete occlusion after additional coiling. CONCLUSION. Additional coiling of previously coiled aneurysms has a low procedural complication rate and leads to sufficient occlusion in most aneurysms. The data indicate that successful additional coiling decreases the risk of rebleeding.

Abstract

Item does not contain fulltext Although monotherapy in epilepsy treatment is frequently advocated, this is not based on studies with equal drug loads. This study was performed to investigate the experimental background of polytherapy with standardized drug loads. Dose-dependent effects on grip strength, accelerod performance, and spontaneous behavior of rats was used to study the effect of combining valproate and ethosuximide. The potency of the drugs (combination) was obtained by fitting the sigmoid E-max equation to the data. Drug interaction was assessed using the isobologram method and quantified by comparing equivalent drug loads with their 95% confidence intervals. We found that the effects of valproate and ethosuximide combine in a simple additive way in the grip strength experiment as well as in the accelerod experiment. In the behavioral studies, however, a higher drug load of the combination was needed to obtain the same amount of sedation, signifying infra-additivity. Infra-additivity of sedative effects is an important finding because this is by far the most frequent side effect mentioned in human studies. However, assessment of the therapeutic effect of the combination will have to be completed before a preference for mono- or polytherapy, based on the balance of adverse effects and efficacy, can be expressed.

Abstract

Item does not contain fulltext, Objective: To follow the recovery course of a patient who exhibited an amnesic-confabulatory syndrome in conjunction with severe executive dysfunction in the first week following bithalamic infarction. Background: Previous studies have shown that spontaneous confabulation originates from the combination of amnesia and executive dysfunction and that the degree of confabulation is determined by the degree of executive dysfunction. However, a few studies have also reported a dissociation between spontaneous confabulation and executive dysfunction. Therefore, the role of executive functioning in spontaneous confabulation is presently unclear. Method: Clinical examinations, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and cognitive and behavioral assessments with a focus on executive functions were conducted within the first week poststroke and after 6 months. Results: MRI showed a bithalamic infarction involving the territory of the paramedian arteries predominantly affecting the dorsomedial and intralaminar nuclei of the thalami. Disappearance of spontaneous confabulation paralleled a specific recovery in mental flexibility, whereas all other executive components and long-term memory remained severely impaired at 6 months poststroke. Conclusions: Our case study provides additional evidence that mental flexibility, but not executive functioning in general, is a prerequisite for spontaneous confabulation. Direct or indirect functional deactivation of dorsolateral prefrontal cortex may be necessary for the development of spontaneous confabulation.
