Abstract
Recent evidence suggests that the vasopressin analogue desglycinamide-arginine8-vasopressin (DGAVP) might specifically benefit mild brain trauma patients. We investigated the effect of intranasal DGAVP treatment in 32 patients who had sustained a mild head injury for 3 months in a double-blind, placebo-controlled, matched-pairs study. DGAVP did not have a positive effect on cognitive recovery in this group of mildly affected patients.Entities:
