Summary for Patent: 10,802,032
Title:Blood diagnostics for evaluating and predicting brain damage after a concussion or other head injury
Abstract:Methods and materials are disclosed for evaluating head brain injuries that do not involve blood loss or skull fractures, such as possible concussions. These methods and materials involve bioreagents (such as monoclonal antibodies, single-stranded DNA or RNA, etc.) affixed to computer-readable devices handled by electronic readers that can interact with portable computers (such as laptops, pads or tablets, smart phones, etc.). The bioreagents will detect the presence and concentration of at least two metabolites that are released by mitochondria in response to cellular damage. Additional bioreagents may be included, for detecting and quantifying other damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMP's). When used along with cognitive, reasoning, and/or response tests, this type of analysis can help non-physicians assess the severity of, and proper responses to, head traumas that otherwise are difficult or impossible to reliably evaluate.
