2 Figure 1 On binary logistic regression analysis, surgery was protective against mortality in patients with preoperative brain injury (cerebrovascular accident or coma; odds ratio, 0.058; 95% confidence interval, ; P < .001), but hypotension/shock/tamponade (odds ratio, 3.4; 95% confidence interval, ; P = .009) and renal failure (odds ratio, 3.4; 95% confidence interval, ; P = .013) were independent risk factors for reduced hospital survival.

3 Figure 2 In surgically treated patients, the only independent predictor of hospital death was hypotension/shock/tamponade (odds ratio, 5.4; 95% confidence interval, ; P = .009); however, brain injury reversal was protective against hospital mortality (odds ratio, 0.014; 95% confidence interval, ; P = .226).
