Overview

Management of traumatic brain injury patients in hospital is expensive.

Cost-effectiveness of therapy

  • Management of traumatic brain injury patients in hospital is expensive. It has been estimated that the total global annual burden of traumatic brain injury US$ 400 billion. The in-hospital cost ranged from $$2,130 - $401,808, which was determined by the patient's length of stay and surgical procedure underwent. The cost was also directly proportional to the severity of traumatic brain injury.[1]
  • Aggressive care is notably better across all age groups and is recommended for the management of traumatic brain injury patients. Cost of aggressive management is less than routine management until age 80 where it is more costly than routine management. Comfort care has been associated with poor outcomes in all age groups and costs more for all groups except 80-year-olds.[2]
