Objective: To investigate the safety and effects of early bronchoscopy on atelectasis of the ventilation patients, whom had experienced craniotomy for severe cranial trauma and hemorrhage.
Methods: Fifty-five patients suffered from severe cranial trauma and hemorrhage with Glascow coma scores (GCS) less than 8 complicated by atelectasis after craniotomy were early given sputum suction by bronchoscope via extratracheal intubation and broncho-alveolar lavage (BAL) during tracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation. During the treatment, patients' consciousness, vital signs and arterial blood gas were closely monitored.
