Clinical Trial: Single-center Transversal Observational Study on the Evaluation of S100B Changes in Subjects Attending the Emergency Department With Head Trauma

U.S., June 26 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07036146) titled 'Single-center Transversal Observational Study on the Evaluation of S100B Changes in Subjects Attending the Emergency Department With Head Trauma' on June 17.

Brief Summary: The aim of the study is to evaluate blood levels of the calcium-binding protein S100B as a diagnostic biomarker for the management of patients with suspected traumatic brain injury. With a sensitivity of 97% and a negative predictive value greater than 99%, S100B measurement can predict the absence of brain injury, supporting risk stratification and the safe discharge of low-risk patients. This, in turn, may reduce the need for imaging studies and shorten emergen...
