Traumatic brain injury and other severe brain injuries requiring neurointensive care are associated with high mortality, long-term disability and substantial societal burden. Despite advances in critical care, outcomes after severe brain injury remain difficult to predict and secondary brain injury plays a major role in determining prognosis.
The Örebro Severe Brain Injury Database (ÖrSBID) is a prospective observational registry that aims to systematically collect detailed clinical, physiological, imaging and biological data from adult patients with severe brain injury requiring care at the neurointesive care unit or neurointermediate care unit at Örebro University Hospital.
The purpose of the registry is to enable deep phenotyping of severe brain injury, improve understanding of secondary injury mechanisms, support outcome prediction and provide a platform for longitudinal follow-up and future research. No experimental interventions are performed as part of the study.
