Evaluation of the SCALED (SCaling AcceptabLE cDs)
This project will adapt a currently deployed Clinical Decision Support (CDS) system to deliver a VTE prevention guideline for adult patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI). We believe this is an ideal PCOR use case given PCORI's continued effort to combat VTE in trauma and our experience previously implementing this …
Concussion in French Non-professional Handball League : Efficiency of a Concussion Protocol, the White Card Process
Sport related concussion is a major issue for many contact sports, such as Rugby, Football, Hockey and Handball. As a response, some federations like World Rugby set up a concussion protocol, that starts with the referee having the responsibility to issue a blue card when suspecting a concussed player and …
Contributions of mTBI to Neurodegeneration Due to Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE) and Alzheimer's Disease (AD)
This is a research study that aims to examine whether Veterans with mild Traumatic Brain Injuries are at risk for dementia by studying their memory, brain wave activity, brain structure and proteins that can be elevated after brain injury and in dementia.
Comparison of Scores for Early Brain Damage Assessment at Intensive Care Unit Admission After Cardiac Arrest
Even in patients with successful return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC), outcome after cardiac arrest remains poor. The overall in-hospital survival rate widely varies both worldwide and across communities, from 1 to 4 folds according to circumstances of arrest and post-resuscitation interventions. Several studies have already shown that early interventions performed …
Selective CT for Anticoagulated Head Injured Patients
The goal is to derive and a clinical decision rule for safe exclusion of traumatic brain injury without neuroimaging in head-injured ED patients who take anticoagulant medications. The objectives are to: Derive and externally validate a new highly sensitive and maximally specific clinical decision rule for the exclusion of traumatic …
Use of Cerebral Biomarkers in Minor Traumatic Brain Injury in the Emergency Unit
The use of serum biomarkers in the setting of the emergency department (ED) has been well characterized over the years as an adjunctive tool for the clinician in the setting of complex decision making. In this regard, the serum dosage of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase …
Validation of the Scandinavian Guidelines for Minor and Moderate Head Trauma in Children
Head injuries are common among children and adolescents, with many of them assessed in emergency departments each year. Most children recover fast, with full resolution of symptoms as headache, dizziness or fatigue. A few, however, develop life-threatening complications (such as bleedings in/around the brain). It can be difficult to swiftly …
Phase I Human Analytics (HALO) Study
Discover, optimize, standardize, and validate clinical-trial measures and biomarkers used to diagnose and differentiate cardiovascular, oncologic, neurologic, and other diseases and disorders. Specifically, our research study endeavors to improve disease and disorder diagnosis to the earliest clinical states, in preclinical states, and to develop ensemble multivariate biomarker risk scores leading …
CoMind Early Feasibility Study
The purpose of this research, which has been determined as non-significant risk by the central IRB overseeing the study, is to obtain information to help further develop a machine (a medical device) to measure the pressure around the brain from the outside (this pressure is called intracranial pressure or ICP). …
SAFETY: Stabilization Points to Third Hospital Line Assessment oF the Impact of the usE of Infrascanner Model 2500 to Provide Decision Support for Diagnosis/Screening of Traumatic Brain InjurY in Ukraine
The Infrascanner model 2500 is a handheld, noninvasive device that is FDA-cleared to detect traumatic intracranial hematomas. FDA clearance K200203 was issued in 2020, K211617 added pediatric age group to the IFU in 2022, and K241389 approved higher laser power use to address dark skinned patients in 2024. This non …
