ABSTRACT
Objective To assess the behavior of rat by suction traumatic brain injury model. Methods Suction traumatic brain injury (TBI) models were created in SD rats. Twenty-four rats were divided into two groups: suction TBI group (n=12) and sham operation group (n=12). Modified neurological severity score (mNSS) test and Morris water maze test were employed to assess the animal behavior in both groups. Results One rat was died of suction trauma. Success rate of modeling for those survivors was one hundred per cent. Cortical and subcortical contusion, hemorrhage and tissue loss were seen in paraffin section by HE staining one week after suction impact. Abnormal mNSS persisted no more than twenty-five days. Morris water maze test suggested that abnormal mean escape latency period last no more than three days. Conclusion Rat suction traumatic brain injury model is suitable for the research about neurological sensory-motor function which last relatively short period.
