INTRODUCTION: This study aims to re-evaluate the GCS threshold for intubation in patients presenting to the ED with a traumatic brain injury to optimize outcomes and provide evidence for future practice management guidelines.
METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the ACS-TQIP-Participant Use File (PUF) 2015-2019 for adult trauma patients 18 years and older who experienced a blunt traumatic head injury and received computerized tomography. Multivariable regressions were performed to assess associations between outcomes and GCS intubation thresholds of 5, 8, and 10.
RESULTS: In patients with a GCS ≤5, there were no differences in mortality (GCS ≤5: 26.3% vs GCS >5: 28.3%, adjusted P = .08), complication rates (GCS ≤5: 9.1% vs GCS >5: 10.3%, adjusted P = .91), or ICU length of stay (GCS ≤5: 5.4 vs GCS >5: 4.7, adjusted P = .36) between intubated and non-intubated patients. Intubated patients at GCS thresholds ≤8 (26.2% vs 19.1%, adjusted P < .0001) and ≤10 (25.6% vs 15.8%, adjusted P < .0001) had significantly higher mortality rates than non-intubated patients. Intubation at all GCS thresholds >5 resulted in higher rates of complications, H-LOS, and ICU-LOS when compared to non-intubated patients with the same GCS score.
CONCLUSION: A GCS ≤5 was the threshold at which intubation in TBI patients conferred an additional benefit in disposition without worsened outcomes of mortality, H-LOS, or ICU-LOS. Trauma societies and hospital institutions should consider revisiting existing guidelines and protocols concerning the appropriate GCS threshold for safer intubation and better outcomes among these patient population.
