Brief Summary

Decision Rules for an initial CT-scan in patients arriving to Emergency Department (ED) and presenting a mild traumatic brain injury could be optimized by the use of an objective parameter easily and rapidly measured. This may be the place for serum biomarkers providing a quick and accurate assessment. BioMérieux has now developed an automated assay for the measurement of serum Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP) and Ubiquitin C-terminal Hydrolase (UCH-L1), the VIDAS® TBI assay to fill out this unmet needs. The goal of the herein study is to generate real-world data and evidences to support the VIDAS® TBI performances.

Study Arms (1)

Subjects with Mild Traumatic Brain injury

EXPERIMENTAL

Subjects presenting to the ED within 12 hours of suspected mild head trauma and a Glasgow Score of 13-15 undergo to blood collection for VIDAS® TBI \[GFAP, UCH-L1\] testing.

Diagnostic Test: VIDAS® TBI Test [GFAP and UCH-L1 assays]

Interventions

The VIDAS® TBI (GFAP, UCH-L1) test is composed of two automated assays - VIDAS® TBI (GFAP) and VIDAS® TBI (UCH-L1) - to be used on the VIDAS® family of instruments for the quantitative measurement of Glial 15 Fibrillary Acidic Protein (GFAP) and Ubiquitin C-terminal Hydrolase- L1 (UCH-L1) in human serum using the Enzyme Linked Fluorescent Assay (ELFA) technique. The results of both assays are required to obtain an overall qualitative test interpretation.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Adult subject ≥ 18 years old
