Traumatic brain injury is a major cause of mortality and morbidity, particularly among young men. The efficacy and safety of most of the interventions used in the management of patients with traumatic brain injury remain unproven. Examples include the 'cerebral perfusion pressure-targeted' and 'volume-targeted' management strategies for optimizing cerebrovascular haemodynamics and specific interventions, such as hyperventilation, osmotherapy, cerebrospinal fluid drainage, barbiturates, decompressive craniectomy, therapeutic hypothermia, normobaric hyperoxia and hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
