Understanding Concussion/Mild Traumatic Brain Injury

In a blinded trial, any patient who during a game or practice situation had head contact,
thus possible Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) aka Concussion, in addition to the current
approved protocols, patients are scanned with the Blink Reflexometer. Results are not
available until the end of the season, thus eliminating the potential of someone relying on
the results. The Blink Reflexometer uses 5 puffs of air on the side of the eye over 20
seconds. The air causes a blink reflex which is being correlated to a concussion. The results
of the blink post concussion are compared to a baseline scan taken at the beginning of the
season.
