Abstract

Patients with acute cerebral illness or injury are among the least well handled, and unfortunately, many suffer mortal complications during transfer to a hospital. The responsibilities of the physician in making a complete initial evaluation of the patient before transfer are outlined by Hanback and Yarbrough (page 75), whereas this article stresses the principles specific to patients with cerebral injuries. Attention to the principles outlined in both articles should result in reduced mortality and morbidity for patients with cerebral injuries.—MSR
