Background: Within the traumatic brain injury population, outcomes are affected by hypoxic events in the early injury period. Previous work shows a high prevalence of cognitive deficits in patients with multiple injuries who do not have intracranial hemorrhage identified on admission head computed tomography scan. We hypothesize that intensive care unit (ICU) delirium and long-term cognitive impairment (LTCI) are more likely in patients who have a hypoxic event within the first 48 hours of ICU admission.Methods: A total of 173 patients with multiple injuries (Injury Severity Score [ISS] > 15) who presented to a Level I trauma center from July 2006 to July 2007 were enrolled in a study on long-term cognitive deficit. Ninety-seven patients required ICU management and all had continuous oxygen saturation data collected. The Confusion Assessment Method for the ICU was collected twice a day on all patients in ICU. Of the total enrolled population, 108 (62%) were evaluated 12 months after discharge by neuropsychological tests. Cognitive impairment was defined as having 2 neuropsychological test scores, 1.5 standard deviations below the mean or 1 neuropsychological test score, and 2 standard deviations below the mean.
