Sodium Lactate in Severe TBI

Summary

This is a safety phase 2 clinical trial of intravenous infusion of sodium lactate in patients with severe TBI. This study is intended for patients in the acute setting in an intensive care unit at centers that have been selected to participate in this trial. This is a proof of safety study and biomarker response study.
