iPhone app TCCL - MTBI

The free mTBI application offers emergency and first-line responders recent evidence-based tools for the management of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).
This bilingual application (English and French) is intended for clinicians (doctors, nurses, health professionals) who work with adults and children who have suffered a mTBI.
The application contains readily available information on diagnostic criteria, symptoms and risk factors for medical complications (Canadian CT Head Rule and PECARN), and risk factors for poor prognosis.
In addition, step by step recommendations to resume intellectual and physical activities are clearly presented.
The application also includes mTBI assessment tools for health practitioners (Rivermead post-concussion symptoms questionnaire, SCAT5, etc.), a list of clinical references and a toolbox for patients.

NEW FEATURE : This application provides the opportunity for health practitioners to send tools to help patients resume intellectual and physical activities directly to their phone or tablet, as well as a list of clinical reference for safe medical leave.
This application was developed as part of a research project funded by the Fonds de la recherche en sant du Qubec (FRSQ) under the direction of Elaine de Guise, associate professor in the Department of Psychology at the Universit de Montral and researcher at the MUHC Research Institute and the Centre de recherche interdisciplinaire en radaptation du Montral mtropolitain (CRIR).
This project was carried out in close collaboration with members of an advisory committee composed of physicians, nurses and researchers, all experts in MTBI or emergency care, from several Quebec communities.
The Ministre de la Sant et des Services Sociaux du Qubec (MSSS), the Institut national dexcellence en sant et services sociaux (INESSS), the Rseau provincial de Recherche en Adaptation-Radaptation (REPAR), the Socit de lassurance automobile du Qubec (SAAQ) and the Ontario Neurotrauma Foundation (ONF) were also involved as project partners.
