Collaborative European NeuroTrauma Effectiveness Research in Traumatic Brain Injury (CENTER-TBI)
The CENTER-TBI includes a core study and a registry. A total of 65 centres initiated patient enrollment. The core study was an observational and longitudinal cohort study of patients with all severities of traumatic brain injury (TBI), presenting between December 19, 2014, and December 17, 2017, to centres across Europe and Israel. The generalisability of the core study was assessed through comparison with the registry, which collected administrative data.
