There is a paucity of knowledge about mechanisms behind mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) subgroup's sustained problems, and effective interventions that can alleviate this disabling condition. Persistent Post-concussive Symptoms (PCS) affect between 20% and 30% of individuals after mTBI. This Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) will investigate whether graded aerobic exercise …
Two groups of subjects will be constitute: (i) patients with circumscribed brain injury (including stroke, vascular malformations, tumor or circumscribed infectious lesions) or degenerative/developmental disorders and selective cognitive disorders; (ii) healthy control subjects. The objective of this project is to evaluate specific neuropsychological deficits and apply current brain imaging techniques …
Life-threatening mass effect (LTME) arises when brain swelling displaces or compresses crucial midline structures subsequent to acute brain injuries (ABIs) like traumatic brain injury (TBI), ischemic stroke (IS), and intraparenchymal hemorrhage (IPH), which can manifest rapidly within hours or more gradually over days. Despite advancements in surgical management, significant gaps …
The purpose of this observational epidemiological study is to investigate the management and the complications associated with Non Traumatic Neuro-Vascular Diseases. Data will be analysed to answer pre-defined scientific projects and to improve management of these conditions.
The main purpose of this project is to identify the medium-term prognostic factors for patients with Severe Acquired Brain Injuries and evaluate their impact. The secondary aim is to create a system of continuous assessment of the quality of care for each rehabilitation unit.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of early continuous intravenous infusion of hypertonic saline solution (HSS) to improve survival and independence in daily life activities (at 6 months) of patients with traumatic brain injury at high risk of intracranial hypertension.
Narrative Worldwide, traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a leading cause of death and disability among children and adolescents. The Investigators aim to test whether pediatric TBI treatment guided by invasive intracranial pressure monitoring produces better patient outcomes than care guided by a protocol without invasive monitoring. Study findings will inform …
After injury, survivors of msTBI depend on informal family caregivers. Upwards of 77% of family caregivers experience poor outcomes, such as adverse life changes, poor health related quality of life, and increased depressive symptoms. Caregivers frequently report minimal support or training to prepare them for their new role. Periods of …
This is a preliminary, prospective interventional study to investigate the feasibility of using transcutaneous alternating current stimulation (TACS) after a traumatic brain injury (TBI) to improve cognitive function and decision-making.
Patients with memory and cognitive deficits following TBI that do not respond to conventional treatments experience a decrease in quality of life. Despite advances in neuroimaging, genetics, pharmacology and psychosocial interventions in the last half century, little progress has been made in altering the natural history of the condition or …
