A resposta metabólica ao trauma cranioencefálico é autolimitada? Análise das proteínas de fase aguda e glicemia

Abstract: RESUMO -Nos últimos anos tem havido referências à limitação da resposta metabólica nas duas primeiras semanas após trauma cranioencefálico (TCE). Foi feita proposta de estudo a partir de experimento clínico em pacientes com trauma encefálico grave, que foram avaliados por volta de 7 dias após a lesão (M1). A segunda avaliação ocorreu 4 dias após (M2), e a terceira 3 a 4 dias após (M3). Em um período de 2 anos, foram selecionados 28 pacientes do sexo masculino, com trauma encefálico grave, escala de gravidade d… Show more

“…The hyperglycemia found in the trauma, induced by the catecholamines, seems to be the result both of increased hepatic release of glucose and reduction in glucose clearance. [ 7 ] The increase in plasmatic glucose is proportional to the gravity of the wound, which is reflected in a positive correlation between the gravity of the wound and the concentration of glucose in trauma victims. The presence of hyperglycemia gives the brain a source of calories that can be readily used and may be important to initial survival.…”
