Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Propofol is commonly used to sedate patients after traumatic brain injury. However, the dose-dependent neuroprotective effects of propofol after head trauma are unknown. We compared histopathological damage after 6 h of electroencephalogram-targeted high- and low-dose propofol infusion in rats subjected to controlled cortical impact (CCI). METHODS: Animals were randomly assigned to CCI/propofol with electroencephalogram burst-suppression-ratio 1%-5% (CCI/lowprop), CCI/propofol with b...     »
