Abstract:
Balance and bispectral index metrics were evaluated in piglets following focal and diffuse brain injury. A significant decrease in bispectral index existed at 24 hours after diffuse brain injury, but not after focal injury. Postural sway increased at 1-6 hours after both focal and diffuse injuries.
