There are no therapeutic agents that have been shown to improve outcomes from severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). Critical barriers to progress in developing treatments for severe TBI are the lack of: 1) monitoring biomarkers for assessing individual patient response to treatment; 2) predictive biomarkers for identifying patients likely to …
New learning and memory impairment (NLMI) is a common and devastating manifestation of TBI associated with substantial life burdens. Persons with moderate to severe TBI have shown improvement in NLM for prose material (e.g. story) as well as beneficial changes in default-mode network (DMN) activation during list-learning19 following treatment with …
Intractable high intracranial pressures (ICP) are associated with poor functional outcomes and mortality, so the SCALPEL trials aims to evaluate the effect of decompressive craniectomy against decompressive laparotomy to lower those pressures in diffuse TBI. The primary outcome measure for that evaluation is functional outcome after 12 months on the …
TBI rehabilitation care transitions refer to the processes of preparing patients, families, and community-based healthcare providers for the patient's passage from inpatient rehabilitation to the home and community or to another level of care. Persons with TBI have heterogenous neurological impairment (cognitive and behavioral foremost, along with motor, sensory, and …
To improve patient selection for head CT, a safe and high sensitivity screening neuroimaging modality is needed. Currently many clinicians must make treatment decisions based solely on the patients clinical exam, which has low sensitivity and specificity and low inter-rater reliability. This study is being done to learn more about …
Our project aims to develop a rapidly acquired and communicated MRI assessment and report that incorporates functional and structural imaging to convey information about functional neurological insults following traumatic brain injury (TBI) that are not typically visible on clinical imaging. Within this framework, there are two sub-studies. The first is …
This trial will evaluate the impact of a multicomponent program (TBI Rehabilitation and Activation in Veterans; TRAIN-Vets) on improving cognitive function over an 8-month trial period in older Veterans with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Older Veterans with a history of TBI and subjective cognitive complaints will be enrolled and randomly …
The goal of this observational study is to learn about in Evaluation of consciousness impairment in severe TBI and full-cycle neuroregulation based on multimodal imaging. The main question it aims to answer is: •For the existing examination means of super early neurological consciousness level recognition and function assessment accuracy of …
Intensive care management of patient with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) includes deep and prolonged sedation with intravenous hypnotics (propofol, midazolam, ketamine) in combination with opioids to prevent and/or treat episodes of intracranial hypertension. However, some patients may develop tachyphylaxis with a gradual increase of administered intravenous hypnotics and opioids …
Clinical Challenges and Severity of Traumatic Brain Injury: Traumatic brain injury, as a common neurosurgical disease, poses a significant threat to patients' life safety and quality of life.The promotion of in vitro cultivated cow bile in the treatment of post-traumatic brain injury is expected to provide a more economical and …
