標題: | Persistent vegetative state in electrical injuries: A 10-year review | 作者: | HUI-FU HUANG | 關鍵字: | Electrical injuries; Persistent vegetative state | 公開日期: | 2008 | 卷: | 34 | 期: | 4 | 起(迄)頁: | 539-542 | 來源出版物: | Burns | 摘要: | We reviewed 148 cases of electrical injury admitted to our burn centre. The incidence of persistent vegetative state was 3% (n = 5), higher in the low-voltage (6.7%) than in high-voltage group (1.2%). At the time of trauma, 44% (n = 65) lost consciousness and 50% of these (n = 32) received cardiopulmonary resuscitation on arrival at hospital. Of these, 50% recovered (n = 16), 22% became comatose (n = 7) and 28% (n = 9) died. Of the seven comatose patients, five did not show brain oedema but remained in a persistent vegetative state; this state was more common with low-voltage electrical injuries. The public should be warned of this effect of low-voltage trauma. ? 2007 Elsevier Ltd and ISBI. |
