In today’s episode, we’re diving into the life-or-death realities surrounding head injuries and the role nurses play in ensuring timely, effective interventions. Head injuries aren’t just another trauma case—they demand an immediate response and a keen eye for signs of deterioration. 

From concussions to epidural and subdural hematomas, head injuries vary in severity, but the common denominator is that delayed care can mean the difference between recovery and irreversible damage. 

We’ll break down key concepts like intracranial pressure (ICP), cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP), and the Monroe-Kellie Doctrine, offering insights into why these are critical knowledge areas for any healthcare provider working in trauma or emergency settings. 

Tune in for candid discussions and expert insights aimed at equipping you with the skills needed to prevent adverse outcomes in patients with head injuries.
