Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • adults between 18 and 55 years of age
  • documented head injury with functional neurological damage to the central nervous system unlikely to improve with present standard of care approaches
  • a Glasgow Outcome Scale-Extended (GOS-E) score \> 2 and ≤ 6
  • onset or diagnosis of the injury or disease process greater than 6 months
  • ability to obtain consent from the subject of their legally authorized representative (LAR)
  • ability to speak English or Spanish \*required for validated neurocognitive outcome testing) -

Exclusion

  • known history of:
  • intellectual deficiency or psychiatric conditions likely to invalidate our ability to assess changes in cognition or behavior,
  • recently treated infection,
  • renal disease or altered renal function (screening serum creatinine \> 1.5 mg/dL),
  • hepatic disease or altered liver function (screening SGPT \> 150 U/L or T. Bilirubin \>1.3 mg/dL),
  • cancer,
  • immunosuppression (screening WBC \< 3, 000 cells/ml),
  • HIV+,
  • chemical or ETOH dependency that in the opinion of the investigator would preclude participation in the study,
  • acute or chronic lung disease requiring significant medication, oxygen supplementation, or mechanical ventilation,
  • bleeding disorders including immune-mediated heparin-induced thrombocytopenia,
  • known sensitivity to heparin, Lovenox, and pork products,
  • individuals with mechanical prosthetic heart valves.
  • individuals who have received a stem cell treatment.
  • Normal brain CT/MRI exam
  • Spinal deformity, spinal surgery (including repeated epidural or spinal punctures), or spinal cord injury diagnosed by CT/MR or clinical exam
  • diagnosed with a genetic or metabolic disorder related to the neurologic condition
  • other acute or chronic medical conditions that, in the opinion of the investigator, may increase the risks associated with study participation
  • for women of child bearing potential, a positive pregnancy test at the screening visit, or, for both women and men, unwillingness to comply with acceptable methods of birth control during the study
  • participation in a concurrent interventional study
  • inability to undergo the diagnostic tests (PET/DT-MRI) or unwilling/unable to cooperate with the diagnostic tests and outcome assessments
  • unwilling or unable to return for follow-up study visits -
