Article Synopsis
  • Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a significant health issue, particularly in low- and middle-income countries like India, which presents different epidemiological trends and care practices compared to Europe.
  • Data from studies in India (CINTER-TBI) and Europe (CENTER-TBI) reveal that patients in India tend to be younger and more severely injured than those in Europe, with falls being the main cause in Europe and traffic incidents in India.
  • Access to pre-hospital care is markedly higher in Europe, with Indian patients more likely to receive certain surgical interventions for severe TBI, indicating differences in acute care responsiveness between the regions.
