Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Incidence of full stomach (Gastric Volume more than 1.5ml/kg) in patients with moderate to severe isolated traumatic brain injury patients.Timepoint: Baseline

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Gastric residual volume assessment (quantitatively)Timepoint: Baseline;1. Grading of Gastric contents (qualitative) Timepoint: Baseline;Correlation between increased ICP (measured by ONSD) & gastric volume status. Timepoint: Baseline;Correlation between time of last meal intake & gastric volume assessment with USG.Timepoint: Baseline;Incidence of aspiration described a. Clinically in terms of fall in oxygen saturation 10mins after intubation b. New onset radiological evidence of aspiration (in chest X ray) at 12hours after intubation. Timepoint: a.10min b.12hours
