Description

Daniel Ahlert and co-authors study blood pressure on the way to hospital after brain injury. Their 2025 study reviews six hundred eighty patients treated in Zurich. Keeping systolic pressure in a target band may limit second injury to the brain. Guidelines now aim for one hundred ten to one hundred forty-nine.

Three quarters of the patients had moderate to severe injury, and one hundred seventeen died. About half started in the target band, and half stayed there for most of the trip. Pressure level and swings predicted survival on their own. In the full model, though, those links faded. Other factors may carry the real weight. The profile still maps how often targets are missed in practice.
