NCT02699346

Brief Summary

The HeadSense (HS) HS-1000 device, a new non-invasive brain monitor is expected to safely and accurately monitor concussed patients with minimal discomfort, potentially providing a new modality for concussion measurement. The device is based on advanced signal analysis algorithms that analyze a very low frequency acoustic signal (within the audible range) generated by the device. The acoustic signal is transmitted using a small transmitter, placed in the participant's ear, and picked by an acoustic sensor placed in the other ear.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • To measure ICP values by using the HS-1000 in healthy subjects and concussed subjects

    20 minute recording session

  • Determine the correlation between ICP measurements obtained from the HS-1000 device and the clinical findings from the modified Balance Error Score System (mBESS) and ImPACT scores in post-concussion patients.

    20 minute recording session

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • To evaluate the ergonomic and functional aspects of using the HS-1000 by having the operators of the device complete a brief 5 question survey about the ease or difficulty in using the device.

EXPERIMENTAL

Eligible patients and healthy subjects will be enrolled into the study and HS-1000 headset portion of the device will be placed in their ears. HS-1000 monitoring intervals will last from 20 minutes continuously. Following completion of data collection, HS-1000 will be removed.

Device: HS-1000 recording
