secondary brain damage

Medscape: Intravascular Temperature Modulation as an Adjunct to Secondary Brain Injury Prevention in a Patient with an Epidural Hematoma After surviving the initial trauma, patients with EDH are also at risk for secondary brain injury. In fact, up to 35% of patients develop secondary brain injury within days after the initial trauma ... Intravascular Temperature Modulation as an Adjunct to Secondary Brain Injury Prevention in a Patient with an Epidural Hematoma Could plasma help protect the brain after injury?

Understanding the Context

Researchers at Vanderbilt are testing whether plasma transfusions given after head trauma could reduce brain damage and improve recovery for TBI ... Restoring blood flow after an ischemic stroke can trigger secondary brain injury, causing inflammation, neuronal death, and long-term disability that current treatments do not address.
