Vestibular Injury After Low-Intensity Blast Exposure

Frontiers in Neurology, 2018
The increased use of close range explosives has led to a higher incidence of exposure to blast-related head trauma. Exposure to primary blast waves is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality.

Simulation of the generation and propagation of blast induced shock waves [PDF]

, 2003
Hybrid modelling of blast vibration uses the signal produced from a single hole test shot to simulate the vibration that would be produced by a full-scale production blast.

Exposure to blast shock waves via the ear canal induces deficits in vestibular afferent function in rats

Journal of Otology, 2020
The ears are air-filled structures that are directly impacted during blast exposure. In addition to hearing loss and tinnitus, blast victims often complain of vertigo, dizziness and unsteady posture, suggesting that blast exposure induces damage to the ...

Rapid release of tissue enzymes into blood after blast exposure: potential use as biological dosimeters. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Explosive blast results in multiple organ injury and polytrauma, the intensity of which varies with the nature of the exposure, orientation, environment and individual resilience.

The dynorphin/kappa opioid receptor mediates adverse immunological and behavioral outcomes induced by repetitive blast trauma

Journal of Neuroinflammation, 2022
Background Adverse pathophysiological and behavioral outcomes related to mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and chronic pain are common following blast exposure and contribute to decreased quality of life, but ...

Long-Term Effects of Low-Level Blast Exposure and High-Caliber Weapons Use in Military Special Operators

Brain Sciences, 2022
Chronic low-level blast exposure has been linked with neurological alterations and traumatic brain injury (TBI) biomarkers. Impaired smooth-pursuit eye movements (SPEM) are often associated with TBI.

The Neurobehavioral Effects of Buprenorphine and Meloxicam on a Blast-Induced Traumatic Brain Injury Model in the Rat

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
Previous findings have indicated that pain relieving medications such as opioids and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) may be neuroprotective after traumatic brain injury in rodents, but only limited studies have been performed in a blast ...

A 3-D Finite-Element Minipig Model to Assess Brain Biomechanical Responses to Blast Exposure

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2021
Despite years of research, it is still unknown whether the interaction of explosion-induced blast waves with the head causes injury to the human brain.
