Study:
BRAIN (Biomarker Rapid Assessment of Ischemic iNjury)
Rationale:
n/a
Purpose:
This project is designed to evaluate the clinical utility of a novel blood test, the Triage
Stroke Panel, as an aid in the diagnosis and assessment of stroke. The Triage Stroke Panel
test device, used with the Triage MeterPlus, is a rapid, point-of-care immunoassay. The test
measures the concentration of various analytes present in EDTA-anticoagulated whole blood or
plasma, specifically B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), fibrin degradation products containing
D-Dimer, matrix metalloproteiase-9 (MMP-9), and S-100B. The test utilizes a proprietary
algorithm for the automatic calculation of a single Multimarker Index (MMX) result from the
individual biomarker values. The MMX result is being evaluated for use as an aid in the
assessment and diagnosis of stroke.
