Abstract:Service members (SMs) suffer from repeated exposure to concussions or mild TBI, which can disrupt cerebral blood flow. This effect is seen in the acute phase of TBI, but the development of vascular wall abnormalities, which can lead to luminal narrowing and abnormally elevated cerebral blood flow velocities (CBFV), has not been studied in the post concussive phase. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the transcranial Doppler (TCD) determined incidence of abnormal cerebral hemodynamics in patients with lo… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
