Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the effect of FDA-approved antiseizure drugs in the brain connectivity patterns of severe and moderate acute brain injury patients with suppression of consciousness. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does the antiseizure medication reduce the functional connectivity of seizure networks, as identified by resting state functional MRI (rs-fMRI), within this specific target population? - What is the prevalence of seizure networks in patients from the target population, both with EEG suggestive and not suggestive of epileptogenic activity? Participants will have a rs-fMRI and those with seizure networks will receive treatment with two antiseizure medications and a post-treatment rs-fMRI. Researchers will compare the pretreatment and post-treatment rs-fMRIs to see if there are changes in the participant's functional connectivity including seizure networks and typical resting state networks.
The objective of this study is to show that the measurement of auditory and vibro-tactile evoked potentials, or the recording of the EEG signal during a motor imaging task, can be used in routine clinical situations to explore the state of consciousness of subjects in Non-responsive Awakening (or Chronic Vegetative State) or in Minimal Consciousness (or relational state) after a severe brain injury. Assumptions : - Correlation between patient response rates obtained with the brain-machine interface and their clinical consciousness score (Coma Recovery Scale Revised score) - Differentiation of the parameters of the evoked potentials P300 between patients in a vegetative state and those in a state of minimal consciousness
The primary objective of this research is to measure changes in neurochemical concentrations during stimulation of the primary visual cortex, in both conditions of normoxia (normal oxygen availability) and induced mild hypoxia (reduced oxygen availability).
While the exercise responses are classically described at the cardiorespiratory and muscle levels, recent data suggest that the brain is also significantly stressed by exercise and may even participate to performance limitation. In hypoxia in particular, cerebral responses to exercise may be altered and promote performance reduction during endurance exercise. In the present study, the investigators used innovative approaches to assess cerebral perturbations associated with exercise in hypoxia.
