Journal Title: International Journal Of Medical Science And Clinical Research Studies - Year 2022, Vol 2, Issue 12
Abstract
Cranio-encephalic trauma represents a 30-millisecond event, the leading cause of death or severe disability in young adults. It is therefore necessary to determine the nature and extent of the lesions as quickly as possible because the situation can deteriorate very quickly in the following days. Overall mortality remains heavy and sequelae frequent, which poses the problem of socio-professional and family reintegration.At the end of this study, we arrived at the following results:-The prevalence of patients with cranio-encephalic trauma admitted to the General Hospital of INERA YANGAMBI was 44.5% during the period of our study;-Most of our patients were male with 68.4%;-The 20 to 29 age group was more affected;-The students were more victims of cranio-encephalictrauma ;-Road traffic accidents are the main etiology of cranio-encephalic trauma with 70.4% of cases in our research environment;-The abrasion was the most observed anatomo-pathological lesion with 64.3% ;-The majority of our patients had a clear conscience on admission with 72.5%;-the evolution of the majority of patients was marked by an improvement with 62.2%
