Data was collected using the NIR device at the time of a computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan was performed to evaluate a suspected TBI. 85 patients were included in the per protocol population. Of the 85 patients, 45 were determined by CT scan to have intracranial hemorrhage. The CT and MRI scans were read by an independent neuroradiologist who was blinded to the NIR measurements.
These results confirm in Chinese population the results of previous studies that demonstrated a NIR based device can reliably screen for intracranial hematomas that are likely to be of clinical importance.
The NIR device demonstrated sensitivity of 95.6% (95% confidence intervals [CI] 83.6-99.2%) and specificity of 92.5% (CI 78.5-98%) in detecting intracranial hematomas larger than 3.5ml in volume, and that were less than 2.5cm from the surface of the brain.
