Checking brain function after severe brain injury
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests a new automated method to screen brain activity in people with severe brain damage who need a breathing machine. It aims to better understand when the brain stops functioning, which could help families and doctors make decisions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have acute brain damage
- You are 18 years old or older
- You need a machine to help you breathe
- You passed away before leaving the hospital

This study looks at patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) who already need brain pressure or oxygen monitoring. Doctors want to see if certain tests can help predict how well someone might recover.
This study looks at different ways to predict how people with severe disorders of consciousness might recover after a brain injury. It may help doctors better estimate prognosis and improve care planning.
This study tests a special brain-monitoring system in the ICU for people with severe brain injuries. It aims to give doctors early warnings about changes in the brain and help predict recovery, which may improve treatment and outcomes.
This study is developing a tool to help predict outcomes for people with severe brain injuries by combining information from brain monitoring and body metabolism. Participating could help doctors better understand your condition and tailor care in the intensive care unit.
This study is testing a new way to predict recovery for people with serious brain injuries in the ICU. It uses continuous brain monitoring to gather more information and help doctors make better treatment decisions.
This trial monitors brain activity with special electrodes after a severe head injury. It aims to understand how the brain recovers by watching the electrical signals, which might help improve treatment for brain pressure.
