主要目标：研究老年人（>= 60岁）创伤后脑损伤（TBI）的死亡率。研究设计：系统回顾和荟萃分析。方法和程序：使用多个数据库，对2011年7月发表的关于TBI后死亡率的文章进行文献检索。有关患者特征的信息（年龄、格拉斯哥昏迷量表（GCS）、损伤病因学等），主要结果和结果：24项研究的总死亡率为38.3%（CI 27.1-50.9%）。与65-74岁相比，75岁以上患者的死亡率比值为1.734（CI=1.311-2.292; p
Primary objective: To examine mortality rates among older adults (>= 60 years) post-traumatic brain injury (TBI).Research design: Systematic review and meta-analysis.Methods and procedures: Using multiple databases, a literature search was conducted for articles on mortality after TBI published up to July 2011. Information on patient characteristics (age, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), injury aetiology, etc.), mortality rates, time to death and study design was extracted and pooled.Main outcomes and results: Twenty-four studies had an overall mortality rate of 38.3% (CI 27.1-50.9%). The odds of mortality for those over 75 years compared to those of 65-74 years was 1.734 (CI=1.311-2.292; p
