Recovery after brain injury: mechanisms and principles

Recovery after brain injury: mechanisms and principles

The past 20 years have represented an important period in the development of principles underlying neuroplasticity, especially as they apply to recovery from neurological injury. It is now generally accepted that acquired brain injuries, such as occur in stroke or trauma, initiate a cascade of regenerative events that last for at least several weeks, if not months. Many investigators have point...

Cognitive Recovery and Rehabilitation After Brain Injury: Mechanisms, Challenges and Support

Update of neuropathology and neurological recovery after traumatic brain injury.

This review focuses on the potential for traumatic brain injury to evoke both focal and diffuse changes within the brain parenchyma, while considering the cellular constituents involved and the subcellular perturbations that contribute to their dysfunction. New insight is provided on the pathobiology of traumatically induced cell body injury and diffuse axonal damage. The consequences of axonal...

Electrophysiological Monitoring of Brain Injury and Recovery after Cardiac Arrest.

Reliable prognostic methods for cerebral functional outcome of post cardiac-arrest (CA) patients are necessary, especially since therapeutic hypothermia (TH) as a standard treatment. Traditional neurophysiological prognostic indicators, such as clinical examination and chemical biomarkers, may result in indecisive outcome predictions and do not directly reflect neuronal activity, though they ha...
