Trauma molecular processes study
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial studies biological processes after a traumatic brain injury. It looks at brain tissue samples from patients who need surgery to remove a brain bruise to learn more about healing and injury.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have been diagnosed with a traumatic brain injury.
- You are admitted to the intensive care unit.
- You need brain surgery to remove a contusion (a bruise on the brain).
- You can provide written consent to join the study.
- You do not have a bleeding disorder or other condition that would make brain surgery unsafe.

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 follows people with a moderate, non-penetrating traumatic brain injury (TBI) to see how small blood-vessel damage changes over time. It uses brain scans to learn what happens after a serious accident, which may help improve future care.
This study looks at the experiences of people with traumatic brain injury who are joining observational clinical trials. It aims to understand how these trials work and how they can be improved for patients like you.
This study is testing a new blood-based test to help doctors diagnose traumatic brain injury (TBI) and track recovery or complications. If you have had a head injury and a CT scan as part of your care, you may be able to join.
This study collects medical and test information from people who have a confirmed brain injury (TBI) and arrive at the emergency room within 12 hours. Doctors hope the collected clinical and lab data will help better understand TBI and improve future care.
This study uses a quick MRI scan to check brain function and predict recovery after a traumatic brain injury. It may help researchers develop better ways to assess and treat TBI patients.
