Objective To evaluate the curative effect and safety of mild hypothermia on patients with traumatic brain injury. Methods According to the cochrane systematic review methods , the data bases such as Cochrane, Pubmed, Embase, CBM, CNKI, Wanfang and VIP database were searched. The quality of included documents were assessed to extract meta analysis data. Results Compared to the control group, there was no statistically significant difference in patients treated by hypothermia for 3 days or less in mortality , but the difference was statistically significant after the summary [RR=0.74, 95%CI 0.64~0.85,P<0.000 1]; And there was no statistically significant difference in improving neural function of patients treated by hypothermia for < 3 days , but hypothermia improves the prognosis after the summary [RR=1.40,95%CI 1.24~1.59,P<0.000 01]. The difference was statistically significant in the incidence of pneumonia (P=0.007), there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of arrhythmia (P=0.06), but the difference was statistically significant after sensitivity analysis. Conclusions Patients treated by hypothermia for < 3 days is not valid for clinical outcomes , the duration of the treament up to 3 days may not reduce mortality rates, but can improve the prognosis, lasts longer than 3 days or until the pressure back to normal, reducing the mortality rate, improve the neurological prognosis;but increased incidence of pneumonia, whether to increase the rate of cardiac arrhythmias have yet to be determined.

Objective Mild hypothermia provides protection for the brain and improves prognosis in the treatment of severe traumatic brain injury, which is widely acknowledged.The article aimed to analysis the prognosis and complications of long-term and short-term mild hypothermia on patients with severe traumatic brain injury. Methods According to the cochrane systematic review methods, thorough search was carried out in databases including Cochrane, Pubmed, Embase, CBM, CNKI, Wanfang and VIP.Eval-uation was made on the quality of selected documents, and Revman5.2 software was applied for meta analysis after data extraction. Results Long-term mild hypothermia achieved improved prognosis compared to short-term mild hypothermia ( GOS score 4 ~5 ) [RR=1.37, 95%CI (1.14, 1.64), P=0.0006].No significant difference was found between these two therapies in pneumonia in-cidence (P=0.94), arrhythmia incidence ( P=0.54) and stress ulcer incidence (P=0.99). Conclusion In comparison to short-term hypothermia therapy, long-term mild hypothermia therapy improved the prognosis of patients with severe traumatic brain inju-ry without obvious increase in the incidence of pneumonia, arrhythmia and stress ulcer.

Objective To explore safety evaluation of the approaches of the percutaneous eilational tracheostomy(PDT)ane traeitional tracheotomy in the treatment of neurological patients. Methods The stuey eesign was a multicenter,prospective,raneomizee clinical trial. One huneree ane seventy-six cases with acute nerve trachea incision from Feb. 2010 to Feb. 2013 of 3 hospitals were selectee as our subject. They were raneomly eivieee into the traeitional group ane PDT group. The information inclueing operation time,the incieence of pneumothorax,subcutaneous emphysema,tracheal fistula,esophageal,trachea ane lung injury from complications such as infection were recoreee. Results The complication rate in traeitional group was 19. 51%(16 / 82),higher than that of PDT group(8. 51%(8 / 94),P = 0. 021). The surgery perioe in PDT group was(7. 5 ± 2. 3)min,shortee than that in traeitional group((41. 6 ± 5. 8)min,P = 0. 000). Conclusion The approach of percutaneous tracheostomy can quickly buile airway of neurological patients with character of simple, safe,ane it also can reeuce the incieence of respiratory complications.
