Severe brain injury (SBI) is one of the world's leading causes of death and disability in young adults, but its peripheral vascular consequences in humans are poorly understood. This prospective, monocentric, pathophysiological study aims to investigate differences in vasoreactivity in the anterior aspect of the contralateral forearm at the most injured cerebral hemisphere between patients with severe head trauma and patients with severe trauma without associated brain injury matched on sex and age (+/- 5 years).
