Effects of Transport on Patients With Traumatic Brain Injury

NCT01077089 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 14

Last updated 2013-02-25

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Hospitalized patients are often moved from their rooms to other hospital locations, particularly imaging facilities. For patients with traumatic brain injury, such movements may raise the risk of secondary brain injuries. The purpose of this study is to monitor brain injured patients during transport and to measure the resulting changes in intracranial pressure. This will allow for documentation of the frequency of secondary injury and help in understanding their causes.
