the brain surgery that was able to repair that bleed, those were all miracles. But the miracle cure that you are praying for does not exist. Your loved one, if they've been in a coma, they have permanent brain damage and that permanent brain damage is going to change them and it's ...
We present a case series of three patients with severe TBIs who were aggressively treated with vitamin D3, progesterone, omega-3 fatty acids and enteral glutamine for up to six weeks, termed neuroceutical augmentation for traumatic brain injury (NATBI), with very favorable outcomes [...
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) treatment is now focused on the prevention of primary injury and reduction of secondary injury. However, no single effective treatment is available as yet for the mitigation of traumatic brain damage in humans. Both chemical and environmental stresses applied before injury...
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is considered an epidemic that continues to compromise the welfare of humankind. Despite the extensive efforts invested in countering this clinical health problem, current clinical science and technology still fall short of providing a pharmacological cure for TBI rendering ...
(PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder with no cure. Clinical presentation is characterized by postural instability, resting tremors, and gait problems that result from progressive loss of A9 dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) has been ...
Research on Traumatic Brain Injuries essaysClimbing up the rope was going great when all of a sudden, the rope broke and he fell to the bottom. His head smashed into a rock when he hit the dirt at the bottom of the hill. Head injuries are a serious pro
Brain edema is one of the major secondary reactions in TBI resulting in water accumulation in extracellular or intracellular spaces within the brain, in turn resulting in elevated intracranial pressure. Surgical interventions to cure brain edema have limited benefit, hence necessitating other methods of...
