Biomarker Role in Assessing Imaging Needs for Mild Cranial Trauma
This study aims to determine whether a blood test can help doctors decide when to use a head CT scan for patients with a mild head injury. Researchers are investigating whether the results from this blood test can aid in making better decisions about patient care and potentially reduce the …
Weaning From Mechanical Ventilation in Patients With Acute Brain Injury
Acute brain injury (ABI) patients frequently necessate intubation and invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV). While some ABI patients are capable of breathing spontaneously, which is one of the main criteria of extubation and weaning. However, the rate of extubation failure was significantly higher in ABI patients compared with non-neurological critical care …
Ketamine in Acute Brain Injury Patients.
Although, in the past years, an increasing use of ketamine in Traumatic Brain injury (TBI) has been reported as an adjunct to other sedatives, there is no evidence from randomized clinical trial to support this practice. The BIKe (Brain Injury and Ketamine) study is a double-blind placebo controlled randomized multicenter …
Paired Vagus Nerve Stimulation in Mobilization of Patients With Prolonged Disorders of Consciousness
Prolonged disorders of consciousness (pDOC) are defined as DOC lasting >1 year post injury for patients with Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) and >3 months post injury for patients with non-TBI and at present there are limited treatments that reliably lead to enhanced prognosis. The rehabilitation process throughout the continuum of …
ECMO ABI Detection With Hyperfine
The primary objective is to characterize the prevalence and type of ABI following cannulation for pediatric patients who require ECMO support. The secondary objective is to describe the time course and rates of ABI using ultralow-field bedside MRI relative to both duration of ECMO support and clinical imaging obtained in …
Impact of Intensive Computerized Cognitive Training
To investigate factors that predict cognitive enhancement following engagement in an intensive Computerized Cognitive Training Protocol.
Innovative Multimodal and Attention Training to Improve Emotion Communication in Veterans With TBI and PTSD
Poor emotion recognition has been associated with poor quality of interpersonal relationships, loss of employment, behavioral problems, reduced social reintegration, social isolation and even suicide. Deficits in emotion recognition are common in traumatic brain injury (TBI) and in post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) but these deficits have not been well studied …
Rehabilitation of Visual Function After Brain Injury
In Denmark, about 120,000 people suffer from brain damage, of whom approx. 75,000 with brain damage after stroke. Serious and often lasting vision impairments affect 20% to 35% of people after stroke. Vision is the most important sense in humans, and even smaller permanent injuries can drastically reduce quality of …
Q Therapeutic System for Chronic Stroke Recovery
Evaluate the effectiveness of the Q Therapeutic (BQ 3.0) System for individuals with chronic stroke in improving upper extremity function as determined by change in functional outcome measures after 3-month treatment, including in-clinic and at-home sessions.
Using Non-invasive Brain Stimulation to Treat Word Finding Difficulty in Chronic Traumatic Brain Injury
The purpose of this study is to learn more about how brain stimulation affects word finding problems in people who have a traumatic brain injury (TBI). The type of brain stimulation used is called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS). tDCS delivers low levels of electric current to the brain and …
