| description | Abstract Introduction Traumatic head injury (THI) poses a significant global public health burden, often contributing to mortality and disability. Intraoperative hypotension (IH) during emergency neurosurgery for THI can adversely affect perioperative outcomes, and understanding associated risk factors is essential for prevention. Method A multi-center observational study was conducted from February 10 to June 30, 2022. A simple random sampling technique was used to select the study participants. Patient data were analyzed using bivariate and multivariate logistic regression to identify significant factors associated with intraoperative hypotension (IH). Odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals were used to show the strength of association, and P value < 0.05 was considered as statistically significant. Result The incidence of intra-operative hypotension was 46.41% with 95%CI (39.2,53.6). The factors were duration of anesthesia ≥ 135 min with AOR: 4.25, 95% CI (1.004,17.98), severe GCS score with AOR: 7.23, 95% CI (1.098,47.67), intracranial hematoma size ≥ 15 mm with AOR: 7.69, 95% CI (1.18,50.05), and no pupillary abnormality with AOR: 0.061, 95% CI (0.005,0.732). Conclusion and recommendation The incidence of intraoperative hypotension was considerably high. The duration of anesthesia, GCS score, hematoma size, and pupillary abnormalities were associated. The high incidence of IH underscores the need for careful preoperative neurological assessment, utilizing CT findings, vigilance for IH in patients at risk, and proactive management of IH during surgery. Further research should investigate specific mitigation strategies. |
