Summary

Patients with Head Injury have been associated with varying degree of cardiac dysfunction resulting in adverse events during emergency surgery and during recover from head injury. This study intends to study the incidence and impact of cardiac dysfunction using electrocardiogram, transthoracic echocardiogram and cardiac enzyme levels in head injury patients during and following emergency surgery. Our results will facilitate better management, guide specific therapy and help in prognostication in this group of patients.
