Abstract:
Due to its high incidence, high disability rate, and high mortality rate, traumatic brain injury (TBI) poses a serious threat to human health. This manuscript describes the urgent problems currently existing in China's TBI treatment and proposes a scheme of a nationwide collaboration platform for the treatment of TBI so as to improve the overall level of TBI treatment in China, and reduce disability and mortality rates in TBI patients.
