Traumatic Head Injury

A nurse is caring for a client with a severe traumatic brain injury who has an intracranial pressure (ICP) monitor in place. The client's ICP reading is 28 mmHg, and the cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) is 55 mmHg. Which nursing intervention should the nurse implement first?

The client exhibits decerebrate posturing and has dilated pupils that are sluggish to respond to light.
해설
Elevating the head to 30 degrees with neutral neck alignment is the first-line, immediate nursing intervention to reduce ICP by promoting venous drainage. Other options like mannitol, hyperventilation, or surgery are secondary or require specific conditions.
