Summary:
114 patients with an isolated severe traumatic brain injury aged 18 to 55 years were examined and treated. The group I includes 61 surviving patient, in the II group-53 patients who died on the 3-and -15th day of the post-traumatic period. Patients of groups I and II received complex intensive therapy in accordance with the current protocols. Fifteen patients (subgroup I) were obtained as part of the complex therapy of Mexidol at a dose of 1200 mg/day for 7-10 days. Against the background of the use of Mexidol, the intensity of the processes of lipoperoxidation was reduced, the power of the cell antioxidant protection system remained at a sufficient level, and the earlier resolution of post -traumatic encephalopathy and the restoration of consciousness were observed. Against the background of treatment with Mexidol, a more favorable course of the early post-traumatic period, a decrease in complications (χ2 = 55.4; p <0.0001)-acute damage syndrome, DIC, acute cardiovascular failure and pneumonia are noted.

Summary:
In a study that included 34 patients, the effectiveness of Mexidol's preparation in the correction of astheno-vegetative disorders was studied in persons who have suffered a mild craniocre trauma (LCHMT) and a concussion of the brain. The use of Mexidol as part of the complex therapy of these disorders made it possible to improve the results of treatment compared to the control group of patients who did not receive Mexidol. It is noted that the prescription of the drug is preferably at an earlier date from the moment of injury. A distinct therapeutic effect was obtained when using Mexidol in a daily dose of 375 mg in a tablet form for 28-30 days in the acute and intermediate periods of the LCCMT. Side effects and complications during therapy were not observed in any group. It is concluded that Mexidol can be used in the complex treatment of LCHMTs, a concussion of the brain and the correction of the post -compliance syndrome.

Summary:
in the structure of cerebrovascular pathology, the stroke occupies a leading place as one of the main causes of mortality and primary disability of the population. In the treatment of a stroke, in the acute period, measures are the measures to correct the impaired functions of the body and maintain the viability of the nervous tissue. In the recovery period, drugs are used that have an activating effect on neurotrophic and reparative processes, and secondary prophylaxis of stroke is carried out. It is known that brain ischemia is a multifactor pathological process that includes a decrease in energy products with a violation of active vehicles through cell membranes, excessive accumulation of excitoxic excitation mediators in brain structures, an increase in ionized calcium in neurons, hyperproduction of free radicals and activation of oxidant stress. To correct these changes, preparations with antihyplance and antioxidant properties are traditionally used, which include Mexidol (2-ethyl-6-methyl-3-hydroxypyridine succinate). Mexidol improves the metabolism of nervous tissue, it is also known that it affects the rheological properties of blood, reduces platelet aggregation, and has a hypolipidemic effect.

Summary:
annually in the world from a traumatic brain injury (ChMT), one and a half million people die, and 2.4 million become disabled. The frequency of the CCT in various regions of Ukraine is from 2.3 to 4.2% per year, and over the past 10 years has almost doubled. Missiles for a severe CCT is 40–70%, and in surviving patients, the full functional restoration of the central nervous system (central nervous system) is relatively rare.

Summary:
Heddle-brain injury (ChMT) is one of the main reasons for the disability and death of the population. Moreover, mechanical damage to the central nervous system does not tend to decrease in the structure of diseases and injuries. According to WHO, the frequency of craniocre injury annually increases by 2%. In Russia, about 600,000 people receive a traumatic brain injury annually, of which about 50,000 die and the same number of disabled people (Gusev E.I., 2009). Mortality at a severe CMT, according to various estimates, ranges from 10 to 25%, and with the most severe forms reaches 65-70%. In the vast majority of victims (60%), a decrease in performance and disability (epileptic seizures, encephalopathy, paresis and paralysis, speech disorders and other neurological consequences) are observed as a result of injury.

Summary:
the use of Mexidol in a basic dose of 100 mg/day intramuscularly for 10 days is effective in the treatment of mild CITs, which is confirmed by positive neurological dynamics. In patients with a severe CCT, it is more advisable to use a 10-day treatment regimen with a mexidol at a dose of 200 mg/day intramuscularly with the subsequent transition to orally in a dose of 0.25 g 2 times a day for 4 weeks. Due to the good tolerance and the possibilities of intramuscular administration, Mexidol is an urgent drug in outpatient practice for the treatment and rehabilitation of patients of different age groups with the CCT.

Summary:
intracranial hypertension syndrome (HDG) with distant consequences of closed cranial injury (CSMT) is manifested by organic and functional disorders of varying degrees of severity. The work uses a method for assessing the degree of ICG by measuring distances between the structures of the brain stem using magnetic resonance imaging. The calculation of the restriction index of the posterior cranial fossa made it possible to compare the data of 96 patients with the HRG, some of which received Mexidol, and 28 healthy volunteers. Observation was carried out during the year with a neurological examination in dynamics. A comparison of groups of patients with each other and with indicators of healthy individuals revealed reliable differences expressed to a lesser extent of the NCH after treatment with Mexidol. The study showed that the prolonged course use of Mexidol is an effective method of preventing episodes of increasing intracranial pressure in the remote period of mild ZchMT and can be recommended for wide use both in stationary and outpatient conditions.
