Objective:
This study aims to enhance prognostic accuracy in severe traumatic brain injury (STBI) by developing a novel nomogram that integrates clinical and paraclinical data.
Methods:
Data from 263 STBI patients were analyzed, focusing on critical variables such as age, Glasgow Coma Scale scores, pupil responsiveness, CT findings, and blood markers. A rigorous regression analysis was conducted to identify significant predictors. The nomogram underwent internal and external validation, and its predictive performance was compared with existing models through a meta-analysis.
Results:
The novel nomogram demonstrated superior predictive accuracy for STBI outcomes compared to traditional models. Key predictors, including age, Glasgow Coma Scale scores, pupil responsiveness, CT findings, and specific blood markers, were harmonized to provide a more precise prognostic tool. Validation processes confirmed the robustness and reliability of the nomogram.
Conclusion:
The developed nomogram represents a significant advancement in STBI prognosis, offering clinicians a powerful tool to improve patient care strategies. By integrating CT imaging and blood parameters, the nomogram enhances the precision of outcome predictions, facilitating better-informed clinical decisions.
