288. Managing Mild Traumatic Brain Injury in the ED

Managing mild traumatic brain injury can be challenging in the ED. Which patients need admission? Who requires repeat imaging? And who can safely go home without any imaging? In this episode, we welcome Dr. Jeff Cloyd, Medical Director of UT LIFESTAR, to discuss the Modified Brain Injury Guidelines (mBIG) and how they help emergency physicians risk stratify patients with mild traumatic brain injury and traumatic intracranial hemorrhage.
We also discuss the upcoming UT LIFESTAR Emergency & Trauma Symposium (utmedical.org/ut-lifestar-emergency-trauma-sym…) on August 19, featuring cutting-edge trauma and emergency medicine education.
