The overall purpose of this epidemiologic research project is to provide a comprehensive exploration and analysis of critical elements within the neuro-intensive care process in Sweden. All aspects of intensive care management in critically ill patients with acute brain injury will be addressed. The analyses include description of patient characteristics, intensive care data, management and treatments, various aspects of short and long-term follow-up, mortality, regional- and sex-related differences. The long-term goal is to develop neuro-intensive care and management, to minimize in-hospital insults and secondary injuries, to improve diagnostics and follow-up, in order to reduce prolonged neurologic deficits and mortality in these patients.
