Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| correlate prevalence of sodium imbalance with severity of traumatic brain injury by biochemistry lab reports | first 10 days after admission in icu or discharge whichever is earlier |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| predisposing factors for development of sodium imbalance in traumatic brain injury patients by logistic regression analysis of data | first 10 days after admission in icu or discharge whichever is earlier |
| relationship between sodium imbalance and outcome in traumatic brain injury patients by assessing Glasgow outcome score telephonically | 1st and 3rd month after discharge |
