Trauma causes diffuse cerebral edema, the treatment includes dehydration agent treatment, debridement decompression surgery, etc..
1. Dehydration agent treatment: commonly used are mannitol, glycerol fructose. Dehydration drugs can be used to treat cerebral edema and edema caused by extensive burns, and can play a dehydrating role by increasing the plasma osmolality so that the intertissue fluid is transferred to the plasma. It should be noted that there are allergies, severe water loss and pregnant and lactating women are prohibited from use, adverse reactions are mainly electrolyte disorders.
2. Bone flap decompression surgery: mainly used for craniocerebral hernia caused by craniocerebral injury or high intracranial pressure. By removing a certain range of bone flap, let the brain tissue outward expansion, so as to reduce the pressure of the skull and brain. It is effective in relieving pressure on brain tissue and brainstem damage.
The treatment of diffuse cerebral edema caused by trauma also requires the guidance of a medical professional.
