[Effect of nootropic agents on the brain bioelectrical activity and on the indices of neuromediator metabolism in the acute period of severe craniocerebral trauma]. 1989

S V Madorskiĭ, and A A Potapov, and M V Piasetskaia, and E V Shapova, and R F Il'icheva

Clinico-biochemical examination and EEG were conducted in 39 patients with severe craniocerebral trauma who were given nootropic agents in a complex of intensive therapy measures. Four types of changes of monoamine metabolism in treatment with piracetam were revealed which were combined with two types of EEG changes. The authors recommend the time for beginning piracetam therapy depending on the level of traumatic injury to the brain.

D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon
D001930 Brain Injuries Acute and chronic (see also BRAIN INJURIES, CHRONIC) injuries to the brain, including the cerebral hemispheres, CEREBELLUM, and BRAIN STEM. Clinical manifestations depend on the nature of injury. Diffuse trauma to the brain is frequently associated with DIFFUSE AXONAL INJURY or COMA, POST-TRAUMATIC. Localized injuries may be associated with NEUROBEHAVIORAL MANIFESTATIONS; HEMIPARESIS, or other focal neurologic deficits.
