Measurement of specific biomarker(s) for brain injury
Measurement of specific biomarkers to detect brain injury (mild to severe). using 2 or more serial draws from subjects. The biomarkers tested will include established biomarkers s100B, GFAP (Glial Fibrillary Acidic Protein) and also proprietary novel protein and lipid biomarkers that are being studied in discovery research.
