Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to:

1. Determine the temporal course of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) expression in patients wiht severe traumatic brain injury
2. Determine the temporal course of the expression of MMP-related inflammatory mediators of secondary injury in patients with severe traumatic brain injury
3. Describe the association of physiological changes and standard microdialysis analyte measures (lactate, pyruvate, lactate/pyruvate ratio, and glucose) to MMP and neuroinflammatory marker concentrations.
