简要总结
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate whether data made by the ClearView System can be used to detect whether someone has a traumatic brain injury and how severe the injury is.
详细描述
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a significant cause of death and disability in the U.S. The severity of a TBI may range from "mild" (i.e. a brief change in mental status or consciousness) to "severe" (i.e. an extended period of unconsciousness or memory loss after the injury). However, most TBI's that occur each year are mild and are commonly called concussions. Unfortunately, TBI terminology does not adequately describe the injury or impairment, its treatment, or the resulting outcomes. Due to the complexity of the human brain, each person's physiology can result in different patterns of impairment and secondary conditions, requiring different treatment or rehabilitation. The intent of EPIC ClearView™ TBI Feasibility (EPIC-011) is to collect data to further develop the ClearView™ Response Scale to measure electrophysiology associated with TBI

结局指标
主要结局
Agreement of ClearView Scan versus Active Diagnosis
时间窗: I day unless TBI population chooses to participate in one week follow up
The EPIC ClearView software produces a Response Scale report that summaries the electrophysiological measurements associated with organ systems. The autonomic numbers indicate how the person's stress response is affecting different body systems and the physical numbers reflect physiological function. These measurements will then be compared to TBI diagnosis, based on one or two possible scans
次要结局
- Comparison of TBI subjects to Controls(1 day unless TBI population chooses to participate in one week follow up)
