TINS评分在婴幼儿颅脑损伤中的应用

目的介绍和评价一种新的颅脑损伤评分方法——TINS评分。方法回顾性分析28例婴幼儿颅脑损伤的TINS评分及其与患儿治疗效果、预后之间的关系，并与GCS评分方法相比较。结果与GCS评分方法相比，TINS评分与婴幼儿的临床表现、治疗效果有较好的相关性。结论TINS评分是一种较为可靠、客观的评分方法，建议在婴幼儿颅脑损伤中常规应用。

The application of TINS in assessing infants with craniocerebral injuries

Objective The goal of this study was to evaluate a new scoring method for infants with craniocerebral injuries: the Trauma Infant Neurologic Score (TINS), which was first presented at the International Neurologic Symposium in 1997 by M.D. Beni, Israel. According to Beni's data, TINS is a better tool for evaluation of infants Epidural Hematoma (EDH). In the present study,expanded the application range of TINS was expanded from EDH to all infancy craniocerebral injuries.Methods Retrospective analysis was performed to establish the TINS scores in 28 infants with craniocerebral injuries. The scores were then correlated to the clinical course, the therapeutic efficacy and the prognosis of the patients. As control, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scores were obtained and assessed similarly.Results Compared to GCS, TINS correlated better with patients' clinical condition and prognosis.Conclusions TINS is an objective scoring method for infants with brain injury and should be adopted as a routine assessment.
