Primary Outcome Measures:
  • Multiple Exploratory Biomarkers [ Time Frame: Day 1 (at 0, 1, 4, 8, 12, 18, and 24 hours) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • Multiple Exploratory Biomarkers [ Time Frame: Day 1 (at 0, 1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8.9.10,12,14,16,18,20,22,and 24 hours) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Biospecimen Retention:   Samples With DNA

Whole blood, plasma, cerebrospinal fluid


Enrollment: 8
Study Start Date: December 2009
Study Completion Date: February 2010
Primary Completion Date: January 2010 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Groups/Cohorts Assigned Interventions
High Sampling Rate
Samples will be obtained at a high rate
Other: Sampling Rate
Both cohorts will have a lumbar catheter placed and CSF samples will be obtained. The only difference between the two arms will be the sampling rate of CSF. One arm will have a high sampling rate and the other will have a low sampling rate.
Low Sampling Rate
Samples will be obtained at a low rate
Other: Sampling Rate
Both cohorts will have a lumbar catheter placed and CSF samples will be obtained. The only difference between the two arms will be the sampling rate of CSF. One arm will have a high sampling rate and the other will have a low sampling rate.
