Trinity Researchers Spearhead Groundbreaking Research into Treatment of Brain Swelling

Researchers at Trinity College Dublin have reported the results of groundbreaking research into the prevention of cerebral oedema or swelling of the brain, a major cause of death in people who have sustained a traumatic injury to the brain, as a result of an out-of- hospital cardiac arrest or stroke. The research, which is published this week in the international journal, Nature Communications, uses a radically new patented technology, developed in Ireland and termed, ‘Neuronal Barrier Modulation’ which has been shown in an animal model simulating human brain swelling, to be highly effective in reducing the dangerous effects of this condition, while improving cognitive outcome. The research was sponsored by the US Department of Defense and Enterprise Ireland.
