NEW THERAPEUTICS FOR TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY - K...

New Therapeutics for Traumatic Brain Injury: Prevention of Secondary Brain Damage and
Enhancement of Repair and Regeneration explores traumatic brain injury (TBI)  a major cause of
death and disability throughout the world. The delayed nature of the secondary injury phase
suggests that there is a therapeutic window for pharmacological interventions or other
approaches to prevent progressive tissue damage and improve functional outcomes. It is now
apparent that therapeutic interventions should entail both protective and repair regeneration
strategies depending on the phase of brain injury. This book describes emerging experimental
strategies for the treatment of TBI  including new anti-inflammatory or anti-apoptotic
therapeutics that limit brain damage  and novel or repurposed drugs that enhance repair or
regeneration of the brain after injury.
