Managing the acute phase after a severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) with polytrauma represents a challenging situation for every trauma team member. A worldwide variability in the management of these complex patients has been reported in recent studies. Moreover, limited evidence regarding this topic is available, mainly due to the lack of well-designed studies. Anesthesiologists, as trauma team members, should be familiar with all the issues related to the management of these patients. In this narrative review, we summarize the available evidence in this setting, focusing on perioperative brain protection, cardiorespiratory optimization, and preservation of the coagulative function. An overview on simultaneous multisystem surgery (SMS) is also presented.

Vision problems are common in individuals with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI)/concussion. However, a global conceptualization of the diagnostic process remains incomplete and practitioner dependent. Thus, a comprehensive diagnostic test battery is proposed to assist in the management of these patients. This battery includes a range of basic clinical tests of a sensory and motor nature, with all having a clinical and scientific rationale. These tests have been used by the authors for many years, with good success, and furthermore they have been found to be clinically useful and insightful.

Nociceptin/orphanin FQ is a newly described member of the opioid family. Previous minireviews in this series have described the contribution of important factors, including opioids, in the regulation of the cerebral circulation during physiologic and pathologic conditions. The present review extends these initial comments to an opioid whose vascular actions have only very recently been appreciated. In particular, this review discusses the contribution of nociceptin/orphanin FQ to impaired cerebral hemodynamics after cerebral hypoxia/ischemia and traumatic brain injury.
