Abstract:

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Inconsistency in the use of secondary brain injury prevention guidelines among US trauma centers after severe traumatic brain injury is prevalent in many literature sources. However, this phenomenon has not been thoroughly studied. The purpose of this DNP project is to identify the key barriers and challenges in compliance to the evidence-based guidelines for secondary brain injury prevention. DESIGN: An exploratory, emergent design was used to collect descriptive qualitative data through the use of a survey. SETTING: Six Phoenix Metropolitan Level 1 trauma centers. PARTICIPA

CHAPTER ONE: The literature review critically evaluates research that has explored the psychological impact of parental acquired brain injury (ABI) on children. The review identifies a number of factors that affect the psychological well-being of children, including both adverse and protective factors. Evidence from the studies reviewed indicates that children are vulnerable to experiencing a range of emotional and behavioural difficulties following parental ABI. Clinical implications of the review findings are discussed, and directions for future research considered. CHAPTER TWO: The empirica

Abstract:

It is generally supposed that a supportive family can have an influence on outcomes for an adult with severe brain injury, but there is very little known about what effective families actually do. In this research the families of five such individuals were involved in an ethnographic project that lasted for one year. The literature review brought together insights from brain injury, care ethics, disability studies and anthropology. These insights were combined with a process of reflective equilibrium that was applied to the ethnographic material in order to determine the ethics of the carers

Background Depression is known to be common after traumatic brain injury (TBI) and associated with worse functional and psychosocial outcomes. However, there remains considerable uncertainty over the exact prevalence of the condition. Aims The aim of this study was to accurately assess the prevalence of post TBI depression and its changes over a period of one year. The associated demographic and injury features were also examined for possible association with risk of depression in the hope that those with higher susceptibility to depression may be identified.

This study investigated the effects of lesion presence within larger brain networks (e.g., default mode network (DMN), salience network (SN), and mentalizing network (MN)) in the chronic phase of a pediatric traumatic brain injury (TBI) and the effect on social function. We compared children with a TBI to children with an orthopedic injury (OI) with three different aims. The first aim was to determine whether network volume differed by group (e.g., TBI vs. OI). Second, investigate if lesion presence in a sub component region of the network resulted in total network volume loss for that network

Abstract:

The pathology which results from traumatic brain injury (TBI) have long been believed to be immediate and irreversible. However, recently it has been shown that, although the primary effects are virtually unavoidable, the secondary effects manifest themselves through biochemical processes set in motion at the time of the injury. These events are frequently mediated through the process of excitotoxicity, which results from a widespread release of excitatory neurotransmitters. These neurotransmitters go on to activate both ionotropic and metabotropic receptors. The signal transduction initiated

Brain injury continues to be one of the most feared complications following cardiac procedures.

The lack of knowledge of subclinical brain injury is in large part due to lack of an objective means of measurement, meaning it is quantified using variable definitions and genera

Abstract:

Emotion dysregulation is a common phenomenon after brain injury, often compromising socioemotional adjustment and participation. Nevertheless, there has been little research exploring the mechanisms by which brain damage impacts emotion regulation [ER]. In contrast, outside the field of neuropsychology, the study of ER has matured during the last decade, generating a robust body of evidence on the strategies that people use to modulate their feelings. The main goal of this thesis is to bring together, for the first time, these two fields of knowledge. Chapter two presents three articles touchi

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) causes life-debilitating conditions. While patient survival after a TBI has improved, the outlook for quality of life after TBI currently remains poor.

To this end, we investigated two strategies to combat the deleterious affect of TBI. First, we targeted cerebral acidosis associated with TBI by testing whether disruption of acid sensing ion channel 1a (ASIC1a) in CNS, or buffering acidosis with sodium bicarbonate,

The development of Parkinson's disease (PD) in humans has been linked to genetic and environmental factors for many years.

The present studies show that exposure to TCE prior to a TBI can result in pathology similar to early PD and that the interaction of both insults is required for impairment in behaviora
