Abstract

A method of reducing cortical spreading depolarization in an animal having a brain injury includes: affixing to the animal one or more electrodes that are electrically connected to a neurostimulation device; and providing to the animal, by the neurostimulation device, via the one or more electrodes, electrical stimulation of the animal's trigeminal nerve, thereby reducing cortical spreading depolarization in the animal. The method may reduce at least one detrimental effect of cortical spreading depolarization on the injured animal brain.
