The assessment focuses on the clinical utility and performance characteristics of the proposed rapid test within a hospital setting.<\/jats:p>\n\t  <\/jats:sec>\n\t  <jats:sec id=\"S026646232400477X_sec3\" sec-type=\"methods\">\n\t    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n\t    <jats:p>The screening model was meticulously examined for its ability to accurately detect mild TBI, considering the sensitivity and specificity of GFAP and UCH-L1 as blood biomarkers. The study involved a thorough evaluation of the test\u2019s diagnostic accuracy, comparing its outcomes with established standards for mild TBI diagnosis.<\/jats:p>\n\t    <jats:p>Results from the Hospital-Based Health Technology Assessment highlight the potential of the GFAP and UCH-L1 blood biomarker-based rapid test as an efficient screening tool for mild TBI within a hospital environment. The evidence results show that the test is highly sensitive (91 percent to 100 percent) for the prediction of acute traumatic intracranial lesions, which helps rule out injury when the result is negative. When used within 12\u00a0hours of injury in adult patients with mild TBI, this test holds promise in reducing the utilization of CT.<\/jats:p>\n\t  <\/jats:sec>\n\t  <jats:sec id=\"S026646232400477X_sec4\" sec-type=\"conclusions\">\n\t    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n\t    <jats:p>The findings contribute valuable insights into the feasibility and reliability of implementing this technology for timely and accurate identification of mild TBI, enhancing clinical decision making and patient care in hospital settings.<\/jats:p>\n\t  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1017\/s026646232400477x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,9]],"date-time":"2024-12-09T21:53:31Z","timestamp":1733781211000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Hospital-based health technology assessment of a screening rapid test MTBI (GFAP and UCH-L1 blood biomarkers) for mild traumatic brain injury"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"41","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6422-8608","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Miriam","family":"Menacho Rom\u00e1n","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University Hospital Ramon y Cajal"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jose Roberto","family":"Penedo Alonso","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University Hospital Ramon y Cajal"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Audrey","family":"Morales Rodr\u00edguez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University Hospital Ramon y Cajal"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"In\u00e9s","family":"Pecharrom\u00e1n de las Heras","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University Hospital Ramon y Cajal"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Agustina","family":"Vicente Bartulos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University Hospital Ramon y Cajal"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ignacio","family":"Arribas G\u00f3mez","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University Hospital Ramon y Cajal"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nieves","family":"Plana Farr\u00e1s","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University Hospital Ramon y Cajal"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,12,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"S026646232400477X_r1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.mcna.2019.11.001"},{"key":"S026646232400477X_r21","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jamanetworkopen.2022.1302"},{"key":"S026646232400477X_r26","unstructured":"26.
