Eye tracking and blood tests for mild head injury recovery
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests whether a combination of blood tests and eye-tracking can help doctors decide if a head CT scan is needed and predict recovery after a mild head injury (concussion). It aims to make care more accurate and less stressful.
