indomethacin and Craniocerebral Trauma

indomethacin has been researched along with Craniocerebral Trauma in 13 studies

Indomethacin: A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent (NSAID) that inhibits CYCLOOXYGENASE, which is necessary for the formation of PROSTAGLANDINS and other AUTACOIDS. It also inhibits the motility of POLYMORPHONUCLEAR LEUKOCYTES.
indometacin : A member of the class of indole-3-acetic acids that is indole-3-acetic acid in which the indole ring is substituted at positions 1, 2 and 5 by p-chlorobenzoyl, methyl, and methoxy groups, respectively. A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, it is used in the treatment of musculoskeletal and joint disorders including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, bursitis and tendinitis.

Craniocerebral Trauma: Traumatic injuries involving the cranium and intracranial structures (i.e., BRAIN; CRANIAL NERVES; MENINGES; and other structures). Injuries may be classified by whether or not the skull is penetrated (i.e., penetrating vs. nonpenetrating) or whether there is an associated hemorrhage.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"At 18 h post head trauma, rats were decapitated and tissue from the vicinity of the injury and from a corresponding area in the contralateral hemisphere was taken for specific gravity (SG) determination using linear gradient columns."5.27Dexamethasone and indomethacin do not affect brain edema following head injury in rats. ( Cotev, S; Davidson, E; Shapira, Y; Shohami, E; Weidenfeld, Y, 1988)
"The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of hyperventilation and indomethacin on cerebral circulation, metabolism and pressures in patients with acute severe head injury in order to see if indomethacin may act supplementary to hyperventilation."3.69CO(2) and indomethacin vasoreactivity in patients with head injury.
