Brief Summary:
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is defined as a structural alteration of brain function caused by external causes, where mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) represents approximately 80% of all TBI, and although its prognosis is relatively good, it represents a significant cost to the system due to the need to perform a cranial computed tomography (CT) scan, a test of high economic value and not without risks such as irradiation, especially important and dangerous in the pediatric age.
The investigators aim to set-up a point of-care (POC) device to validate a biomarker (H-FABP) able to diagnose the presence of brain damage in children and adults with mTBI at trauma and paediatric Emergency Departments using a blood sample, in order to save resources and avoid subjecting patients to a potentially damaging imaging test. But also, to assess whether the incorporation of new biomarkers improves the prediction of brain damage that can be done with H-FABP.
For that, the investigators will recruit a 400 patients' cohort with blood samples using the available POC device for H-FABP biomarker.
