Traumatic brain injury, polytrauma, and pain: challenges and treatment strategies for the polytrauma rehabilitation.
PROBLEM Chronic pain conditions are common sequelae of traumatic brain injury (TBI). Unfortunately, the incidence of TBI among personnel deployed for Operations Enduring Freedom and Iraqi Freedom (OEF/OIF) is significant, and there is growing evidence that ongoing pain, particularly headaches, will be a primary concern for these individuals. OBJECTIVE This article synthesizes empirical data f...
متن کاملGene expression profiling of experimental traumatic spinal cord injury as a function of distance from impact site and injury severity.
Changes in gene expression contribute to pathophysiological alterations following spinal cord injury (SCI). We examined gene expression over time (4 h, 24 h, 7 days) at the impact site, as well as rostral and caudal regions, following mild, moderate, or severe contusion SCI in rats. High-density oligonucleotide microarrays were used that included approximately 27,000 genes/ESTs (Affymetrix RG-U...
متن کاملSystemic Inflammatory Effects of Traumatic Brain Injury, Femur Fracture, and Shock: An Experimental Murine Polytrauma Model
OBJECTIVE Despite broad research in neurotrauma and shock, little is known on systemic inflammatory effects of the clinically most relevant combined polytrauma. Experimental investigation in an animal model may provide relevant insight for therapeutic strategies. We describe the effects of a combined injury with respect to lymphocyte population and cytokine activation. METHODS 45 male C57BL/6...
متن کاملExperimental and Finite Element Modeling of Penetrating Traumatic Brain Injury
To study penetrating traumatic brain injury biomechanics, a full metal jacket 9-mm handgun projectile was discharged into a transparent brain simulant (Sylgard gel). Five pressure transducers were placed at the entry (two), exit (two), and center (one) of the simulant. High-speed digital video photography at 20,000 frames per second (fps) was used to capture the temporal cavity pulsation. Press...
متن کاملPolytrauma with severe traumatic brain injury. Case report
The management of polytrauma patients requires a multidisciplinary approach, usually realised by a trauma team, based on trauma protocols. This category of patients should be treated in trauma centers, which are hospitals with extensive human and infrastructure resources. The authors present the case of a 17 years old female, a car accident victim, successfully treated in Iasi Neurosurgery Hosp...
