A common treatment for traumatic brain injury, often administered to victims by paramedics at the scene of an accident, has been called into question by a recent medical study. The treatment, known as hypertonic fluid, was thought for years to help with blood flow to the brain while simultaneously relieving pressure. It provided a ray of hope for victims and families of victims of car accidents, truck accidents, severe falls, and serious sports-related injuries. But this latest study shows that there appears to be no benefit from the treatment, leaving medical professionals with one less therapeutic tool for treating traumatic brain injury.
