Non-Invasive Monitoring of Traumatic Brain Injury Progression Using the Infrascanner (MOBI-1)
Purpose
MOBI-1 is a multicenter clinical trial that will evaluate the use of the Infrascanner for the monitoring of traumatic intracranial hematomas.
Condition
- Brain Injuries, Traumatic
Eligibility
- Eligible Ages
- Over 15 Years
- Eligible Genders
- All
- Accepts Healthy Volunteers
- No
Inclusion Criteria
- Age 15 or older 2. Admission CT Scan shows intracranial hemorrhage 3. Glasgow Coma Scale less than 15 4. Neurosurgery service determines initial care is nonoperative 5. Admitted for observation for TBI, to either step-down unit or intensive care unit
Exclusion Criteria
- Inability to provide informed consent or lack of a legally authorized representative (LAR) 2. Admitted and observed for >2 hours prior to screening (i.e., has already received second neurological check) 3. Other injuries deemed non-survivable 4. Diagnosed with hemorrhagic shock or receives a large volume transfusion (>3 units of any blood product within any 1 hour) 5. Planned surgical interventions/ procedures during study period (before the second CT scan) 6. Known prisoner

Arm Groups
| Arm | Description | Assigned Intervention |
|---|---|---|
| Standard care plus infrascans | All participants will receive regular clinical neurological assessments as ordered by the clinical care team. In addition, a research team member will perform an infrascan. This process will be repeated hourly at the same timepoint as the clinical neurological assessments. If a patient's neurological status deteriorates at any time point, and the medical team orders an early (unplanned) CT scan, the neurological data collection will cease once the patient is sent to CT. Infrascan results will not be shared with the clinical care team, and will not guide the participants' care in any way. |

Detailed Description
MOBI-1 is a single-arm, multi-center derivation / validation study that will evaluate the use of the Infrascanner for monitoring traumatic intracranial hematomas. All patients will receive standard care plus hourly infrascanner assessments. This study will test the hypotheses that: 1. The Infrascanner has sufficient diagnostic performance to detect the expansion of intracranial hematomas 2. Patients who have expanding intracranial hematomas will be identified faster when monitored with hourly infrascanner assessments compared to standard care alone 3. Clinical / research staff will be able to attain all data points and relay the assessments to the medical team.
