Abstract
A recent study estimated 60% of global neurosurgical caseload is traumatic brain injury (TBI) and stroke (6.2 and 2.8million, respectively) – the majority in low-to-middle-income settings [1]. There are significant societal costs associated with TBI due to high levels of mortality and morbidity. A rigorous evidence base to guide treatment strategies remains an international public health priority.
