Laser treatment for brain injury soon after admission
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests a laser treatment for people with moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). The laser is applied to the head within 48 hours of being admitted to the hospital, and the study aims to see if it can help improve recovery.

This early study tests whether a brain-stimulation method can help after recovery from a mild to moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI), sometimes called concussion. It also may include healthy volunteers to compare safety and computer-based brain measures.
This study tests a new therapy that uses a small device implanted in the brain (called deep brain stimulation) to help improve thinking and daily function in people who have had a moderate to severe brain injury. It is an early trial to see if the approach is safe and possible.
This study tests whether a painless light therapy applied to the head can help older adults (55-85) who had a moderate or severe traumatic brain injury 1-2 years ago. It aims to see if the treatment improves thinking and memory.
This study is looking at people with traumatic brain injuries to improve how they are treated. If you join, you will get an MRI and other tests within the first two days after your injury, and the researchers will track your recovery over time.
This study tests whether early brain stimulation can help recovery after a moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). It might help improve thinking and awareness in patients who can already speak and follow directions.
This study tests whether light therapy can help people sleep better after a traumatic brain injury (TBI). Researchers will use MRI brain scans and sleep tracking to see if light therapy changes how your brain clears toxins during sleep.
