Patients with traumatic brain injury may be dependent on the decision-making of their families. Restrictive visitation policies implemented during coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic disproportionately affect these patients and This narrative aims to illustrate this phenomenon catalyze discussions regarding need for careful evaluation restrictive family exceptions that required injuries.

Traumatic brain injury is one of the leading causes morbidity and mortality throughout world. Its increasing incidence, in addition to its fundamental role development neurodegenerative disease, proves especially concerning. Despite extensive preclinical clinical studies, researchers have yet identify a safe effective neuroprotective strategy. Following trauma, secondary from molecular, metabol...

To assess the safety of various products, equipment, and vehicles during traumatic events injury risk curves have been developed correlate measurable parameters with risk of injury. The first risk curves to predict head injuries focused on severe head injuries such as skull fractures. These curves were generated by impacting cadaver heads. To understand the biomechanics of mild traumatic brain ...

INTRODUCTION Traumatic brain Injuries represents a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide and road traffic crashes accounts for a significant proportion of these injuries. However, access to neurosurgical care is poor in low income countries like Tanzania. The aim of this study was to assess the management and outcome of Traumatic brain injury patients at a tertiary level health...

Although methylphenidate has been used as a neurostimulant to treat patients with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, its therapeutic role in the psychomotor or cognitive recovery of patients with traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) in both intensive care and rehabilitation settings has not been adequately explored. To address this issue, this meta-analysis searched the available electronic d...

296 long-term consequences, including those related to blast-induced traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), shows an increasing trend. The Defense and Veterans Brain Injury Center (DVBIC) estimated, on the basis of medical records and actual medical diagnoses, that more than 202,000 service members were diagnosed with TBI between 2001 and 2010, with the overwhelming distribution of mild TBI caused by...

abstract objective: to determine the effects of glycemic level on outcome patients with traumatic brain injury . m e t h od s :   from september 2010 to december 2012, all medical records of adult patients with tbi admitted to the emergency room of laura daniela clinic in valledupar city, colombia, south america were enrolled. both genders between 18 and 85 years who referred during the first 4...

Outcomes of traumatic brain injury (TBI) vary because of differences in primary and secondary injuries. Primary injuries occur at the time of a traumatic event, whereas secondary injuries occur later as a result of cellular and molecular events activated in the brain and other tissues by primary injuries. We used a Drosophila melanogaster TBI model to investigate secondary injuries that cause a...

Traumatic brain injury is a substantial cause ofmorbidity and mortality in the UK. An estimated 11 000 people per year sustain a severe traumatic brain injury, mostly between ages 15 and 29 years. Patients with severe traumatic brain injury have a high mortality rate (30-50%) and many survivors will have persistent severe neurological disability. Prompt identification and appropriate early mana...

Brain injury is a damage to the brain, not congenital or degenerative, but caused by an attack physical impact from outside. Traumatic brain (TBI) that occurs when force transmitted head body causes neuropathological and dysfunction. TBI one of most common injuries worldwide. This disorder affects 2% world's population each year leading cause death serious disability in children young adults. G...
