Brief Summary: This study will attempt to evaluate clinical laboratory and radiographic parameters together to assess heir values in outcome prediction from brain injury Patients will be followed up for a period of 6 months following admission to ICU to assess outcome using the Extended Glasgow Outcome Score GOSE

We hypothesise that it is possible to reliably predict outcome in brain injury from the current investigations we have at our disposal
Detailed Description: Design- A prospective clinical trial of patients admitted to intensive care with acute brain injury due to trauma

Setting- Intensive Care Unit of the Alfred Hospital Clinical Examination- Day 4 and day 8 ICU consultant to assess prognosis and score patient

Electrophysiology- Day 4 and day 8 SSEP and EEG Interpretation by person blinded to the patient

CT Brain- Day 1 day 4 and day 8 Interpretation by radiologist blinded to the patient

Blinding- Persons blinded to the patients will make all interpretations of investigations Mode of brain injury will be made available

Follow up of patients- Structured interviews by telephone will be performed at 6 months post injury with the patient alone relatives friend carer alone or patient and relatives friend carer These will be performed in relation to the Extended Glasgow Outcome Scale GOSE

Statistics- The positive and negative predictive values for the tests will be determined
