Part 1 addresses the primary treatment strategy, haemodynamic management and multimodal monitoring, Part 2 secondary treatment strategies, long-term outcome, neuroprognostics and chronification. Traumatic brain injury is a complex clinical entity with a high mortality rate. The primary aim is to maintain homeostasis based on physiological targeted values. In addition, further therapy must be geared towards intracranial pressure. In addition to this, there are other monitoring options that appear sensible from a pathophysiological point of view with appropriate therapy adjustment. However, there is still a lack of data on their effectiveness. A further aspect is the inflammation of the cerebrum with the "cross-talk" of the organs, which has a significant influence on further intensive medical care.
