Study Summary

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) represents a significant public health risk in the United States leaving many survivors with significant long term cognitive deficits and at risk for neurodegenerative diseases. Despite extensive research there are no pharmacological therapies which have demonstrated significant improvement in neurological or cognitive recovery. Changes in glucose metabolism are considered the hallmark metabolic response to TBI and ketosis has been proposed as a therapy to ameliorate metabolic dysfunction. This trial investigates the therapeutic potential of a ketogenic or modified Atkins diet on neurocognitive outcome following moderate-severe TBI.

Interventions

  • OTHER ketogenic/modified Atkins diet
  • OTHER Standard diet
