Abstract：Objective To analyze related prognostic factors of patients with severe brain injury performed with decompressive craniotomy .Methods Clinical data of 110 patients ( 83 males and 27 females ranged from 14 to 82 years)with severe traumatic brain injury performed with unilateral or bilateral decompress craniotomy in our hospital from Jan.2009 to Jun.2013 were retrospectively analyzed .Relationship between prognosis and such factors as age,time interval from injury to surgery ,Glasgow Coma Scale ( GCS),pupil size,light reflex and CT inspection were analyzed .Extended Glasgow Outcome Scale of patients within six months was employed for prognostic evalua -tion.Results Analysis results showed that the differences of age ,time interval from injury to surgery ,GCS,pupil size,light reflex and CT inspection had statistical significance (P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age,time interval from injury to surgery,GCS,pupil size,light reflex and CT inspection were closely re-lated with prognosis.Conclusion Age, time interval from injury to surgery,GCS,pupil size,light reflex and CT are closely related with prognosis of patients with severe brain injury and may be helpful as indicators for their prog -nostic evaluation .
