Effect of intracranial pressure monitoring on mortality following severe traumatic brain injury in Thailand: propensity score matching methods

Background: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the most serious public health issues and leads to mortality and disability. Commonly, intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring has been performed, particularly for severe TBI. The objectives of the present study were to evaluate the relationship between ICP monitoring and hospital mortality in severe TBI using various propensity score matching (PSM) methods and estimate the factors associated with ICP monitoring in a real-world situation in Thailand.
