Clinical Trial Summary

The Defense Automated Neurobehavioral Assessment (DANA) was recently developed as a durable, portable, and "field-hardened" NeuroCognitive Assessment Tool. The purpose of this study is to compare the sensitivity of the DANA Brief exam with the Automated Neuropsychological Assessment Metrics (ANAM) battery currently used by the military after concussion. The primary hypothesis is that the DANA Brief exam will be more sensitive for detecting continued impaired cognitive performance than the ANAM during recovery after a concussion.


Clinical Trial Description

Among active duty military personnel deployed to combat theaters, blast injury is a leading cause of traumatic brain injury (TBI). Service members with TBI can experience notable neurological impairments-e.g., attention disturbances, memory and language deficits, and delayed reaction time. Cognitive performance can still be impaired 2-4 weeks after concussion with no overt physical symptoms. Thus, there is a critical need to have an efficient means to determine the incidence of cognitive deficits in service members exposed to or injured by blasts. To that end, this study plans to evaluate the ANAM and the DANA to determine which neurocognitive test more reliably and accurately detects cognitive impairments during the recovery period from a concussion. ;
