Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess a new screening tool for sideline evaluation of concussion injuries in athletes. iDETECT is a new technology that combines several elements of recommended concussion screening tools into a single, portable device.

Conditions

  • Concussion
  • Brain Trauma

Interventions

DEVICE

integrated Display Enhanced Testing for Cognitive Impairment and mild traumatic brain injury (iDETECT)

iDETECT offers an open platform for an evaluation of cognitive, balance, and oculomotor performance after mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). It is a rugged, portable, neurocognitive assessment tool designed specifically for use in field and triage settings for the rapid evaluation of functional neurologic impairment after potential concussive injury.

DEVICE

Riddell High Impact Technology (HIT) System

The Riddell HIT system incorporates six acceleration sensors into standard football helmets worn during practice and game play. A computerized sideline system captures information on linear and rotational acceleration, as well as magnitude, duration, and location of impact for each player

DEVICE

i1 Biometrics Vector Mouth Guard

The i1 Biometrics Vector Mouth Guard is an impact intelligence system that contains a collection of impact sensing mouth guards, housing accelerometer and gyroscope technology that allows real-time collection and storage of biomechanical impact data. Sensors in the mouth guard communicate directly with a sideline assessment base station and allows for immediate assessment and evaluation of hit exposure.
