EEG-based brain biomarker supports hyperbaric oxygen therapy for acute concussions
Acute concussion is a significant health issue among youth athletes, affecting their quality of life and performance. However, the standard of care, rest, has been questioned, while treatments are lacking. This pilot case series used an FDA-cleared electroencephalogram-based brain biomarker (EEGBB) to demonstrate hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO₂) improvement for treating concussion. From December 31, 2021, […]
Factors associated with concussion during combatives activities in a military training environment
CONCLUSION: Females, higher BSI and BESS total scores at baseline, and participants with a history of headaches had greater odds of sustaining a combatives-related concussion during the follow-up period. Conversely, participants in high contact varsity sports had lower odds of sustaining a combatives-related concussion. These different variables should be taken into account when designing combatives […]
Impact of oxygen and carbon dioxide levels on mortality in moderate to severe traumatic brain injury: a systematic review and meta-analysis
CONCLUSIONS: In adults with msTBI, hypoxia and hypocapnia were independently associated with increased mortality, underscoring the importance of prompt recognition and targeted management of these secondary injuries. The role of hypercapnia remains unclear, warranting further investigation.
Construction of a predictive model for hospital-acquired pneumonia risk in patients with mild traumatic brain injury based on LASSO-Logistic regression analysis
CONCLUSIONS: The cause of injury being a traffic accident, NEUT, ESR, FBG, PT, APTT, Alb, BUN, and Na^(+) are identified as major risk factors influencing the occurrence of HAP in mTBI patients. The prediction model constructed using these parameters effectively assesses the likelihood of HAP in mTBI patients.
