Summary

The objective of this study is to identify determinants for implementing the i-STAT Alinity whole blood traumatic brain injury (TBI) test for its Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-indicated use and to evaluate other potential outcomes with clinical implications. The main questions it aims to answer are:

1. Determine the number of patients with non-elevated (i.e., below clinical cutoff) whole blood iSTAT Alinity tests who also receive CT scans.
2. What are the obstacles for using the i-STAT Alinity for its FDA-indicated use

Conditions

  • TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury)
  • Implementation Research

Interventions

DEVICE

i-STAT Alinity TBI test

The i-STAT TBI cartridge is a point-of-care test that measures the level of biomarkers associated with brain injury in whole blood to help assess patients with suspected mTBI within 24 hours after injury.
