First seen May 15, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at 300 adults with severe traumatic brain injury to see how low oxygen levels in the brain affect certain proteins (biomarkers) released after injury. Researchers will measure these proteins in blood samples taken within 24 hours of injury. The goal is to better understand brain damage and guide future treatments.
