The goal of research in traumatic brain injury (TBI) is to identify processes that contribute to mortality and morbidity and that are amenable to intervention. Recent observations that neural loss progresses for weeks to months after TBI suggest a prolonged interval during which interventions could ...
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a complex disease process that requires constant attention as one manages the associated body systems. Even though an "isolated" brain injury may be the cause for admission to the hospital, the injured brain cannot be thought of in isolation from the remainder of...
