Detailed Description

This prospective observational cohort study included 64 non-operative TBI patients admitted to Dr. Kariadi Central General Hospital, Semarang, Indonesia, between November 2023 and January 2024. Patients received one of three routine clinical regimens: 3×0.25 g/kg, 2×0.5 g/kg, or 3×0.5 g/kg body weight. Mannitol was administered intravenously over 15-20 minutes per dose. Plasma osmolarity was measured at baseline and at 6 and 24 hours following initial administration.
