Study dose timing to improve care for brain injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial studies how to time medication or treatment doses when a person has serious brain injury, using measurements from a pressure monitor in the skull. It may help doctors manage brain swelling and pressure more effectively.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be between 18 and 80 years old
- Have been diagnosed with an acute brain injury from bleeding in the brain (stroke) or a traumatic head injury
- Have a pressure monitor placed in the head for medical reasons
- Have the Integra CereLink pressure monitor device connected and available
