Sequelae of hypoglycemic brain injury?

summary

The sequela of brain injury is the most common sequela after brain injury. About 20% of the patients have this disease after injury. There are many kinds of patients, such as insomnia, dreaminess, inattention, forgetfulness, intolerance to noise, tinnitus, dizziness, unsteady pace, fatigue, weakness, loss of appetite, personality change, negative pessimism, depression, neck pain, etc. one person often has more than ten kinds of symptoms. What are the symptoms of hypoglycemia after brain injury?

Sequelae of hypoglycemic brain injury?

Cerebral oscillation syndrome: transient loss of consciousness after cerebral oscillation, generally recovered within 30 minutes. After waking up, the patient could not recall the scene of the injury and the situation of the moment before the injury. The patient may have headache, vomiting, vertigo, irritability, emotional instability, lack of self-confidence, lax attention, autonomic nervous symptoms, such as pale skin, cold sweat, decreased blood pressure, slow pulse, shallow and slow breathing, etc.

Delirium caused by brain trauma: delirium usually comes from coma or drowsiness. The behavior of some patients during delirium reflects their pre illness occupational characteristics. Many patients are resistant, noisy, uncooperative, and others are more aggressive. May have the terror illusion, the serious patient may have the chaotic excitement, even the intense impulse violence behavior. Delirium can be replaced by other disorders of consciousness such as haziness and dreamlike state.

Subdural hematoma caused by brain injury: it can occur soon after injury, with common headache and drowsiness. Occasionally accompanied by delirious motor excitement, about half of the patients have papilledema. Chronic subdural hematoma is characterized by drowsiness, dullness and memory loss. In severe cases, the symptoms of general dementia appear. In some patients, cerebrospinal fluid pressure increases slightly, protein quantity increases, and the appearance is yellow.

matters needing attention

Patients with sequelae of brain injury should not be too hungry or full, and should not overeat. Excessive starvation can reduce the blood glucose level, and hypoglycemia often induces the sequela of brain injury. After being full, the blood glucose level will rise rapidly, the insulin secretion in the body will increase, and accelerate the glucose metabolism, which will also induce the sequela of brain injury. When patients with abdominal discharge, vomiting, a large number of fluid loss, water and electrolyte should be supplemented in time to maintain the balance of water and electrolyte, to avoid inducing brain injury sequelae.
