Helmet that spots brain bleeds could save lives on battlefield and in rural clinics

NCT ID NCT07338383

Summary

This study is testing a new portable, helmet-like device that uses safe, near-infrared light to check for dangerous bleeding inside the skull after a head injury. It aims to see if this tool is as accurate as a large CT scanner for detecting brain bleeds, but can be used quickly in emergency rooms, on battlefields, or in remote areas where CT scans aren't available. The goal is to help medical teams diagnose life-threatening injuries faster to get people the right care sooner.
