Study Summary

The goal of this study is to answer the following questions: * What is the time course of the expected changes in endothelin levels during the first two weeks after injury and how does this relate to outcome? * What is the relation between endothelin levels (big ET-1 and ET-1) in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid and type of injury, from CT scans and GCS? * What is the relation between endothelin levels (big ET-1 and ET-1) in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid and outcome measurements like GOSE, ICP and CT scans? * What is the relation between neurohormones related to the neutral endopeptidase (NEP) (ANP, BNP and cGMP) in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid and type of injury, from CT scans and GCS? * What is the relation between endothelin levels (big ET-1 and ET-1) in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid and markers for apoptosis?
