MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--An article published in the Clinical Journal of Sport Medicine— “Detection of Concussion Using Cranial Accelerometry” by Paul S. Auerbach, MD, MS; Jennifer G. Baine, MD; Megan L. Schott, MD; Amy Greenhaw, MA, ATC; Monika G. Acharya; and Wade S. Smith, MD, PhD—has shown that the Jan Medical Nautilus BrainPulse™ technology has detected a consistent pattern correlated with concussion. This paper provides the first indication that the measurement of brain motion due to pulsatile blood flow can detect physiological changes in the brain correlated with concussion. Out of 84 players enrolled in the Stanford University Medical School Institutional Review Board-approved protocol, BrainPulse detected 10 out of 13 confirmed concussions for a 77% sensitivity; and 79 out of 91 recordings were confirmed to not have a concussion for an 87% specificity.
