Hypotension Associated with Poor Outcome

Low systolic blood pressure (SBP) is linked to poor outcome following traumatic brain injury according to the following age groups

• SBP < 65 mm Hg ( 0 to 1 years of age)
• SBP < 75 mm Hg ( 2 to 5 years)
• SBP < 80 mm Hg ( 6 to 12 years)
• SBP < 90 mm Hg (13 to 16 years)

Blood pressure should be maintained AT LEAST above these values in corresponding age groups
