Abstract

Pharmacologic strategies have been advocated to enhance the neurorehabilitation of persons with severe traumatic brain injury. Dopaminergic pathways have been felt to play a significant role in arousal.

Further research is necessary to clarify the role of pharmacotherapy in the improvement of functional outcome.
