Abstract Globally, traumatic brain injury (TBI) affects 69 million individuals every year. However, there are wide variations in the management of TBI across low-, middle- and high-income countries which reflects on the outcomes of TBI worldwide. This study aims to provide a comprehensive global picture of the surgical and nonsurgical management and outcomes of TBI. The Global NeuroSurg 1 study is a prospective international multicentre cohort study conducted in self-selected registered centers. Any hospital receiving and managing TBI patients is eligible to participate (registration through www.globalneurosurg.org). After obtaining institutional ethical approvals, collaborator teams collect consecutive TBI patient data within any 2 weeks from the 1 June 2019 to the 30 September 2021 with 90 days of follow-up for every patient. Data items include (1) patient demographics, (2) TBI timing, severity and mechanism, (3) clinical status of the patient, (4) radiographic findings, (5) surgical and nonsurgical management and (6) patient survival and Glasgow outcome score. All data are submitted to the secure RedCap system of Oregon Health and Science University, OR. Binary logistic regression analysis will be conducted to evaluate the predictors of 30-day mortality. The odds ratios and the corresponding 95% confidence intervals will be calculated for each variable. Then variables that are independently contributing to the mortality will be selected and examined. Study ethical approvals or ethical approval waivers are obtained from all participating centers. All collected data are kept confidential and will be used only for the purpose of this study.

IntroductionSevere traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a catastrophic neurological condition with significant economic burden. Early in-hospital mortality (<48 hours) with severe TBI is estimated at 50%. Several clinical examinations exist to determine brain death; however, most are difficult to elicit in the acute setting in patients with severe TBI. Having a definitive assessment tool would help predict early in-hospital mortality in this population. CT perfusion (CTP) has shown promise diagnosing early in-hospital mortality in patients with severe TBI and other populations. The purpose of this study is to validate admission CTP features of brain death relative to the clinical examination outcome for characterizing early in-hospital mortality in patients with severe TBI.Methods and analysisThe Early Diagnosis of Mortality using Admission CT Perfusion in Severe Traumatic Brain Injury Patients study, is a prospective cohort study in patients with severe TBI funded by a grant from the Canadian Institute of Health Research. Adults aged 18 or older, with evidence of a severe TBI (Glasgow Coma Scale score ≤8 before initial resuscitation) and, on mechanical ventilation at the time of imaging are eligible. Patients will undergo CTP at the time of first imaging on their hospital admission. Admission CTP compares with the reference standard of an accepted bedside clinical assessment for brainstem function. Deferred consent will be used. The primary outcome is a binary outcome of mortality (dead) or survival (not dead) in the first 48 hours of admission. The planned sample size for achieving a sensitivity of 75% and a specificity of 95% with a CI of ±5% is 200 patients.Ethics and disseminationThis study has been approved by the University of Manitoba Health Research Ethics Board. The findings from our study will be disseminated through peer-reviewed journals and presentations at local rounds, national and international conferences. The public will be informed through forums at the end of the study.Trial registration numberNCT04318665
