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.
