Intracranial hemorrhage detection
The key to complete point of care testing of trauma patients
Point-of-care diagnosis is key to providing early treatment. A fast and non-invasive screening test of trauma patients at the site results in fast triaging which allows for significantly improved diagnostics and treatment process.
But complete point-of-care testing that tests for brain injury remains elusive today because the head trauma patients are missed during triage in case the patient has sustained no external injuries or is not exhibiting any clinical symptom.
Glasgow coma scale has proved to be a very effective triaging methodology in acute traumatic brain injury when a patient is presented with clinical symptoms, however it remains inconclusive in mild traumatic brain injury especially when the patients are asymptomatic or mildly symptomatic due to technology barrier that can detect an injury in absence of symptoms. Once this is solved, a complete point of care diagnosis of trauma patients will become possible.
Each year more than 50 million suffer from traumatic brain injury in the world and $76.5 billion are spent by the US alone in management of these patients.
Patients wait for several hours before clinical symptoms arise, and doctors sometimes make critical decisions with incomplete information.
Although CT scanners are very reliable diagnostic tools for intracranial hemorrhage detection, these cannot be deployed onsite for mass screening owing to their infrastructure requirement, exposure to ionizing radiation and need of a radiologist, which creates a huge demand for an objective assessment of the injury with a portable device that can be used by a paramedic or semi skilled staff.
Cerebo combines class-leading detection accuracy with ease-of-use, compact design, and pricing tailored to the point-of-care market. Our solution takes minutes to run, can be performed by a technician with minimal training and doesn't require cumbersome testing setup to generate the result.
Intracerebral hemorrhage treatments have seen significant advancements in recent years, thanks to improved neurological scans and a better understanding of traumatic brain injuries. These developments are crucial in managing conditions like traumatic intracranial haemorrhage and traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage, which pose severe risks to patients.
Neurological scans are pivotal in diagnosing and treating brain injuries. Modern imaging technologies, such as MRI and CT scans, provide detailed insights into the brain's condition. These scans are essential for identifying traumatic intracranial haemorrhage and traumatic brain injuries. A trauma brain scan can reveal the extent of damage, guiding medical professionals in determining the best course of action.
For instance, a traumatic brain injury scan can detect hematomas, skull fractures, and brain swelling. Similarly, identifying a traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage requires precise imaging to locate the bleed and assess its severity. Advanced neurological scans have made it possible to quickly and accurately diagnose these conditions, enabling timely and effective intracerebral hemorrhage treatments.
Traumatic intracranial hemorrhage occurs when a head injury leads to bleeding within the skull. This condition can be life-threatening and requires immediate medical attention. The use of sophisticated neurological scans is crucial in these cases. A trauma brain scan helps doctors visualize the bleeding and decide whether surgical intervention is necessary.
Timely diagnosis through these scans allows for the rapid implementation of intracerebral hemorrhage treatments, which may include medication to control blood pressure, surgery to remove the clot, or other interventions to reduce intracranial pressure. These treatments are vital for preventing further damage and improving patient outcomes.
Traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage is a specific type of bleeding that occurs within the brain tissue itself. This condition is often the result of severe head trauma and can lead to significant neurological deficits. The role of neurological scans in diagnosing traumatic intracerebral hemorrhage cannot be overstated. These scans provide detailed images that help in pinpointing the location and extent of the bleed.
It's 3 am and a family visits the trauma centre, they have met with an accident. They all have some external bruises and the kid has a mild headache. Is it serious? Do you need to rush them to urgent care, to the CT scan, or neither? Is it worth risking the delay if you aren’t sure? Cerebo helps answer these questions by letting you know if the brain is bleeding internally. Right when you need it. Right at the site.
