PROTOCOLS FOR TREATING SUSPECTED BRAIN INJURIES 2/12/07
Short answer-- there is none in New York State. West Virginia has one. But we here in the currently almost frozen north do not.
I actually went to part of the local t.b.i. support group tonight after an absence of several months. To my delight, some folks from another support group were there. One of the fellows was proposing that our region adopt a protocol to include the field blood work being done on our soldiers when injured in battle [but not available here yet] and a S.P.E.C.T. which measures blood flow and brain activity. I will be writing more about this on another day.
