- Description
- The Medical Technology Enterprise Consortium (MTEC) is excited to post this announcement for a Request for Project Information (RPI) focused on the diagnosis, monitoring, and assessment of Traumatic Brain Injury in support of an upcoming State of the Technology Meeting. Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is commonly defined as an �alteration of the brain function, or other evidence of brain pathology, caused by an external force.� In military, TBI is characterized as the signature injury of the Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom as 10 - 15% of all veterans experienced at least one TBI during their deployment. In civilians, each year at least 4.8 million people in the United States seek medical care for TBI. Among children, TBI-related injuries account for over 837,000 emergency department visits annually, which include over 16,000 TBI-related hospitalizations, and 2,774 TBI related deaths, as reported in 2020. Medical community recognized significant gaps in the care of patients with TBI. TBI�s complex pathophysiology is not fully understood, broad defined and outdated classification to mild, moderate and severe TBI significantly hamper our ability to treat TBI patients. Nevertheless, early diagnosis, treatment, monitoring, and maintenance of TBI patients in the acute setting can significantly improve long-term functional outcomes and reduce injury severity. MTEC is seeking input from both MTEC members and the general public (non-member companies) that are developing solutions for detection, diagnosis and treatment of TBI and its short- and long-term sequelae. We seek input to gauge interest in attendance/technology presentations and to frame the agenda for an�upcoming State of the Technology Meeting on areas of concerns, unmet needs, products/technology advancements and limitations, and regulatory challenges from all interested parties, including but not limited to, healthcare providers, neuroscientists, product developers, regulatory experts, and reimbursement strategists. The RPI attached to this posting contains background material and guidance for the preparation of Project Information Papers to be submitted to MTEC. MTEC membership is not required for submission of Project Information Paper. See the attachment for all details and submission instructions. Project Information Papers shall be submitted through the web based BIDS system (a link is included in the attachment).� Project Information Papers should NOT include proprietary or classified information. Information obtained through this RPI may be used to develop the State of the Technology meeting�s agenda as well as be included as a component of the final State of the Technology report.
