What this trial measures

  • Blood Biomarkers and blast exposure18 months

    Determine if repeated measures of FDA approved mTBI brain injury biomarkers (for concussive injury) are correlated with sound and blast exposure. Measures of blood biomarkers, ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase-L1 (UCH-L1) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), will be taken to determine if they are elevated after acute or chronic blast exposure as measured with dosimeters and blast gauges.

  • Blood Biomarkers and neurophysiologic metrics18 months

    Determine if repeated measures of FDA approved mTBI brain injury biomarkers (for concussive injury) are correlated with neurophysiologic metrics. Measures of blood biomarkers, ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase-L1 (UCH-L1) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), will be taken to determine if they are elevated in correlation with neurophysiologic metrics such as heart rate, HRV, respiration, sleep and activity.

  • Blood Biomarkers and psychologic metrics18 months

    Determine if repeated measures of FDA approved mTBI brain injury biomarkers (for concussive injury) are correlated with psychologic metrics. Measures of blood biomarkers, ubiquitin C-terminal hydrolase-L1 (UCH-L1) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), will be taken to determine if they are elevated in correlation with psychologic measures such as depression, PTSD, cognitive changes, and post-concussive symptoms.
