Traumatic brain injuries are at present remaining an important worldwide medical problem due to substantial percentages of incapacitation and lethality, especially among people of working age. All therapeutic interventions in TBI and their timeliness and efficacy depend on timely and quality diagnosis of patient’s condition, including laboratory parameters of blood and urine. The aim: To assess for peculiar patterns in changes of NO gas transmitter levels in patients with severe traumatic brain injury during the treatment period and to investigate into its relationship with nuclease enzymes in the context of various treatment outcomes. ⋯ The findings of this work can be used when making a diagnosis/selecting an optimal treatment schedule and predicting the sequelae of traumatic brain injury in a patient, which may cumulatively minimize the impact of the injury.
