Real Time Vital Sign Assessment to Predict Neurological Decline After Traumatic Brain Injury (RAPID-TBI)

Real Time Vital Sign Assessment to Predict Neurological Decline After Traumatic Brain Injury (RAPID-TBI)

This study will look to validate predictive algorithms developed in a previous study where we collected relevant data from trauma registry and after using advanced signal-processing and machine-learning, determined prediction scores regarding neuroworsening and other outcomes following traumatic brain injury.
