Targeted Evaluation, Action, & Monitoring of Traumatic Brain Injury

TEAM-TBI (Targeted Evaluation, Action, and Monitoring of Traumatic Brain Injury) is a research study that brings together TBI patients, advanced evaluation methods, and experts in a multi-faceted study to address the heterogeneity of TBI and to evaluate the effects self-help strategies might have on TBI outcomes.

TEAM-TBI (Targeted Evaluation, Action, and Monitoring of Traumatic Brain Injury) proposes a new approach to clinical trials in TBI that will:

• Evolve diagnostic technology & treatment
• Improve self-help strategies
• Lower cost and speed for delivery of effective strategies

The TEAM-TBI program proposes an innovative new approach to TBI clinical trials to overcome the limitations of past efforts and achieve long-awaited breakthroughs for TBI survivors. The study will involve a comprehensive 3-4 day intake evaluation, followed by a variety of remotely performed tasks during a 1-6 month follow-up period.
