NCT ID NCT06846307
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how different amounts of mannitol, a medicine used to reduce brain swelling, change blood osmolarity (a measure of blood thickness) in people with traumatic brain injury. Researchers observed 64 patients aged 18-40 with mild to moderate head injuries. The goal was to find safer ways to use mannitol by understanding its effect on the blood.
