Pupil test in patients being checked for brain death

Brain DeathAdults

Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.

This study uses a special camera to measure pupil reactions in patients being evaluated for brain death. The aim is to see if this test can help confirm the diagnosis of brain death more accurately.

Pupil Response Monitoring in Critically Ill Patients

This study tracks how your pupils react to light while you're in the intensive care unit. Researchers believe these reactions may help predict how critically ill patients recover, and want to understand if monitoring them could improve care.

Test a light-response study to measure and track light sensitivity

This study aims to objectively measure how your pupils respond to light and how your eye muscles react using recording tests. It may help confirm the cause of light sensitivity (especially after a brain injury) and better track how it responds to care.
