OBJECTIVE: This study aims to identify independent factors associated with cervical spinal injuries in head-injured patients. The extent of injuries to other body parts was assessed by the Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) and was included in the analysis.
METHODS: Consecutive head-injured patients admitted via the emergency department from January 1, 2014 to December 31, 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. The inclusion criteria were head-injured patients with an Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) score ≥2 (i.e., head injuries with intracranial hematoma or skull fracture). Patients with minor head injuries with only scalp abrasions or superficial lacerations without significant intracranial injuries (i.e., head injury AIS score = 1) were excluded. The primary outcome was to identify independent predictors associated with cervical spinal injuries in these head-injured patients. Univariate and multivariable analyses were conducted.
RESULTS: A total of 1105 patients were identified. Of these patients, 11.2% (n = 124) had cervical spinal injuries. Univariate and multivariable analyses identified male gender (P = 0.006), the presence of thoracic injury (including rib fracture, hemothorax, or pneumothorax) (P = 0.010), and hypotension with systolic blood pressure <90 mm Hg on admission (P = 0.009) as independent predictors for cervical spinal injury in head-injured patients.
CONCLUSIONS: This study showed that about 1 in 10 patients with significant head injury had cervical spine injury, usually associated with fracture or dislocation. Male gender, the presence of thoracic injury, and hypotension on admission were independent risk factors associated with cervical spinal injuries.
