Severity Grading of Head Injuries (Glasgow Coma Scale)
Head injuries range from mild concussions to life-threatening traumatic brain injuries. Clinical severity is assessed using the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) to determine immediate treatment:
| Injury Grade | GCS Score & Clinical Signs | Management Protocol |
|---|---|---|
| Mild Head Injury (Concussion) | GCS 13–15; brief dazed sensation, mild headache, no focal weakness | Clinical observation, CT scan if red flags present |
| Moderate Head Injury | GCS 9–12; persistent lethargy, confusion, repeated vomiting, amnesia | Mandatory urgent CT scan, hospital admission, neuro-monitoring |
| Severe Traumatic Brain Injury | GCS 3–8; comatose state, non-responsive, unequal pupils, posturing | Immediate intubation, ICU ventilation, emergency surgery |
Why Local Emergency Neurosurgery Matters in Malda
In acute intracranial hemorrhage (such as epidural hematoma), the "Golden Hour" is paramount. Attempting to transport an unstable patient 300+ km from Malda to Kolkata often results in irreversible secondary brain damage. Having on-site neurosurgeons capable of performing immediate decompressive craniectomy in Malda saves lives and preserves long-term neurological recovery.
