Traumatic brain injury (TBI) results in short and long-term mental health syndromes that can affect patients for years after injury. The mental health disorders associated with moderate to severe brain trauma have been well established, but emerging evidence clearly suggests that even mild injuries can lead to transient and/or permanent disabilities in

AbstractMild traumatic brain injury accounts for 1% to 2% of emergency department visits in the United States. Up to 15% of these patients will have an acute intracranial lesion identified on head computed tomography; less than 1% of mild traumatic brain injuries will require neurosurgical intervention.

Neuroprotection in traumatic brain injury
Drug Discovery Today, 2008The management of traumatic brain injury (TBI) is challenging and there is a need for neuroprotective therapies. A better understanding of the pathomechanism of TBI, particularly of the evolution of secondary damage, is providing targets for new approaches and selected ones in clinical development are described.

Neuropharmacology in Traumatic Brain Injury
Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinics of North AmericaOne of the primary goals in traumatic brain injury (TBI) treatment is to minimize secondary brain damage and promote neuroprotection. In TBI rehabilitation, we seek to facilitate neurologic recovery and restore what independence is possible given a patient's physical and cognitive impairments.

Sleep in traumatic brain injury
2015Sleep disturbances affect more than half of survivors of traumatic brain injury (TBI) and have the potential to undermine rehabilitation, recovery, and outcomes. Normal sleep architecture has been well-described and the neurophysiology of sleep is becoming better understood in recent years, though this complex process continues to be dissected for ...
