Abstract

Background: Knowledge of the outcome of substance abuse on clinical-hospital characteristics in patients with TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY (TBI) can be useful in preventing from long term complications. Therefore, this research was conducted to study the interactive effects of TBI and substance abuse on GLASGOW COMA SCALE (GCS) and GLASGOW OUTCOME SCALE (GOS).Methods: 185 TBI patients with mean age 37.46±17.42 year were selected by consecutive sampling and divided in two groups of with (n=35) and without substance abuse (n=150) in emergency & neurosurgery and Intensive Care Unit (ICU) ward of Rasht Poursina Hospital. They were evaluated using GCS on admission and 72 hour later and GOS. Data were analyzed using MANCOVA and T student tests. SPSS v. 20 was also used in data analysis.Results: Multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA) showed that there was significant difference between the two groups of TBI patients with and without substance abuse according to GCS on admission (p=0.006) and 72 hour (p=0.005); so that patients with substance abuse had lower scores in both factors. In the meantime, the independent t-test results also showed that TBI patients with substance abuse had lower GOS than the other group (p=0.038).Conclusion: The present study highlighted the serious effects of substance abuse on reduction of GCS and GOS scores in TBI patients. The clinical implications of this study are discussed here.
