Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is defined as a structural alteration of brain function caused by external causes, where mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) represents approximately 80% of all TBI, and although its prognosis is relatively good, it represents a significant cost to the system due to the need to perform a cranial computed tomography (CT) scan, a test of high economic value and not without risks such as irradiation, especially important and dangerous in the pediatric age.

The investigators aim to set-up a point of-care (POC) device to validate a biomarker (H-FABP) able to diagnose the presence of brain damage in children and adults with mTBI at trauma and paediatric Emergency Departments using a blood sample, in order to save resources and avoid subjecting patients to a potentially damaging imaging test. But also, to assess whether the incorporation of new biomarkers improves the prediction of brain damage that can be done with H-FABP.

For that, the investigators will recruit a 400 patients' cohort with blood samples using the available POC device for H-FABP biomarker.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

BIOTRABIS>18 - Pathologic patients

Group that includes adult patients under study. Those with mild TBI will be recruited. In order to determine the severity of the mild TBI, the doctor uses a scale called the Glasgow GCS scale and mild TBI is understood as those with GCS: 14-15.

No interventions assigned to this group

BIOTRABIS>18 - Control patients

Group that includes adult control patients. Those with very mild TBI will be recruited (GCS: 15) without symptoms

No interventions assigned to this group

BIOTRABIS<18 - Pathologic patients

Group of paediatric patients under study. This will recruit those who come to the emergency department with mild TBI (GCS 14-15) or moderate (GCS 9-13).

No interventions assigned to this group

BIOTRABIS<18 - Control patients

Group that includes paediatric control patients. Those with very mild TBI will be recruited (GCS: 15) without symptoms

No interventions assigned to this group
