About this study

The primary goal of this study is to provide clinicians with a brief, patient self-administer instrument yielding a single composite score that reliably correlates with objective findings on standardized neurocognitive assessment for concussion.

Read the detailed description

This Phase 2 study, Concussion in Motor Vehicle Accidents - The Concussion Identification Index (CIDI), focuses on the psychometric properties of the relationship between acute injury events, i.e. head impact, loss of consciousness (LOC), and post-traumatic amnesia (PTA), commonly reported post-crash signs and symptoms, and neurocognitive outcomes.

Cohort 1 is the validation group and will be used to confirm the optimal cut-off score of the Concussion Identification Index (CIDI) with the score on the ImPACT.

Cohort 2 is the cross-validation group.

Being tested

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • The Concussion Identification IndexOther

    Patient completion of the Concussion Identification Index, a report of crash characteristics, injuries sustained, and post-accident neurological signs and symptoms

  • ImPACTOther

    Patient- completed computerized neurocognitive test battery

Study groups in NCT02858544
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group1 - Validation Groupn=890 patients seen and evaluated for possible concussion after a motor vehicle accident. Patients with qualifying scores on the Concussion Identification Index will also complete the ImPACT.
Receives: Other: The Concussion Identification Index; Other: ImPACT
Group 2 - Cross Validation Groupn=900 patients seen and evaluated for possible concussion after a motor vehicle accident. Patients with qualifying scores on the Concussion Identification Index will also complete the ImPACT.
Receives: Other: The Concussion Identification Index; Other: ImPACT

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Correlation - Concussion Identification Index score with ImPACT test score

    Measured: Within 90 days of the accident

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Patient-completed one page questionnaire

    The questionnaire is divided into two parts:

    The Injury Characteristics section: asks for a yes-no indication of whether 5 concussion-associated events/injuries occurred: striking the head, whiplash, loss of consciousness, being dazed, or having post-traumatic amnesia; and, whether or not the patient had already been given a diagnosis of concussion.

    The Concussive Symptoms section asks the patient to rate on a scale of 0-3 the presence and severity of 10 cognitive and emotional symptoms associated with a post-concussion diagnosis.

    The total numeric value for each patient is reported as an indexed score.

    Measured: Within 90 days of the accident

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Motor Vehicle Accidents and TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury), run by Clionsky Neuro Systems Inc. at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Aug 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Correlation - Concussion Identification Index score with ImPACT test score (time frame: Within 90 days of the accident). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Aug 2016.
