[Study of the fluid-percussion graded model of experimental brain injury in rats].
OBJECTIVE
To study the histopathological aspects of the fluid-percussion graded model of experimental brain injury in rats and the relationship between the fluid-percussion graded model and the clinical grades of brain injury.


METHODS
The graded model of rats was set up by using the device of the improved fluid-percussion model, then we observed the changes of brain tissue of rats.


RESULTS
The fluid-percussion graded model of experimental brain injury could be pathologically graded.


CONCLUSIONS
The pathological grade of the fluid-percussion graded model can be used to evaluate the degree of brain injury in clinic and in experiments.
