Method to reduce SLOSH energy absorption and its damaging effects through the reduction of inelastic collisions in an organism
First Claim
1. A method for reducing the risk of sustaining a traumatic brain injury caused by a traumatic event comprising identifying a subject at risk of sustaining a traumatic brain injury and applying pressure to one or more neck veins of said subject before and during said traumatic event to increase the intracranial pressure, intracranial blood volume, or both sufficiently to mitigate traumatic brain injury in said subject.

Abstract
A first embodiment can be a method to reduce SLOSH energy absorption within an organism by reducing the inelastic collisions. A fluid containing organism can utilize an embodiment of the method wherein one or more of reversibly increasing pressure within the organs or cells, reversibly increasing the volume within the organs or cells, reversibly altering vascular, molecular, or cell wall stiffness, or reversibly altering vascular, molecular, or cell wall configuration within said organism may reduce these collisions.
