Dexmedetomidine for Neurosurgical Procedures [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Anesthesiology Reports, 2013
While earlier clinical investigations focused on characterizing the physiologic effects of dexmedetomidine and its role as a sedative drug in critically-ill patients, newer studies suggest that the alpha 2 adrenergic receptor agonist may have a role as an adjunct in intraoperative neuroanesthesia.

Physostigmine as an adjuvent to neuroleptanaesthesia in neurosurgical procedures [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Anaesthetists’ Society Journal, 1976
The use of physostigmine electively to reverse the effects of droperidal and diazepam has permitted an optimum level of neuroleptanaesthesia in neurosurgical operations where co-operation of the patient is required during part of the procedure. The patient can be put to sleep or readily awakened to be fully co-operative depending on the needs of the ...

Spatiotemporal Drug Delivery via a Neonatal Spinal Cord ECM Hydrogel for Biomimetic Microenvironment Remodeling After Spinal Cord Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A biomimetic hydrogel derived from neonatal spinal cord ECM (DNSCM) delivers LAMB2 protein and ISP peptide to remodel the inhibitory injury microenvironment. The system sustains drug release, upregulates pro‐regenerative LAMB2, downregulates inhibitory CSPG, and promotes axonal regeneration.

Translational Considerations for Injectable Biomaterials and Bioscaffolds to Repair and Regenerate Brain Tissue

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The repair and regeneration of brain tissue faces both biological and technical challenges. Injectable bioscaffolds offer new opportunities to stimulate tissue regrowth in the brain by recruiting neural stem cells. Here, the translational issues are reviewed that need to be address to advance this promising new therapeutic approach from the bench to ...
