Traumatic brain injury is combination damage that occurs as a result of a chain reaction of various metabolic events that develop after primary damage caused by trauma. Pathological events such as lactic acidosis, electrolyte imbalance, increased inflammation that occur during traumatic brain injury leads to poor prognosis in patients. The retrospective study was conducted to investigate the effect of factors that may cause secondary damage, especially electrolyte imbalance and blood glucose levels, on mortality and morbidity in patients undergoing emergency surgery due to head trauma.
