Core Tip

Core Tip: Traumatic brain injury is associated with an unacceptable morbidity and mortality. Brain injury has been shown to increase acute cardiovascular disease risk in the form of neurocardiogenic shock. Shock index (SI) is recognized to be a reliable early indicator of hemodynamic instability compared to traditional vital signs. Early identification is crucial as it helps with risk stratification of patients and predict prognosis. There are numerous variants of SI proposed over the years with the more well studied one being age adjusted SI.
