Neuromuscular Technology Announces Breakthrough Concussion Device Tests Balance and Cognition in Minutes
Nov 28, 2018, 12:28 ET
BAY SHORE, N.Y., Nov. 28, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- At all stages of life your brain needs protection. Cognitive Balance Score (CBS) is a suite of breakthrough technologies, testing your balance and decision-making abilities in less than 5 minutes.
Currently there is no accurate measurement tool or effective protocol for concussion. The only available medical tests are subjective and based solely on cognition. These tests are limited and often provide inaccurate results. They also take hours to administer and interpret, and involve significant costs. CBS only takes minutes and uses a two-factor analysis to calculate a personalised brain health report for every patient. There's no time-consuming setup or a team of neurologists required – just you and your doctor.
Balance is one of your body's most important functions. If you can't stand safely, you can't go about your day-to-day life. Balance deficits are commonly reported after a TBI incident.
According to the CDC, TBIs account for 30% of all injury related deaths in the United States. Every day there are at least 153 deaths due to TBI. If you survive the head injury, you can suffer effects lasting a few days, or ongoing symptoms for your entire life.
A TBI can occur in your life at any time. Often, these accidents go unreported and do not get diagnosed. Over time every head knock adds up. A new, relatively minor TBI you incur can easily become a life-threatening event when these accidents go undetected. Your CBS data is collected throughout your life and compared to other subjects in your age range. This provides you and your doctor with the best information to maintain your utmost health.
CBS also offers you rehabilitation tools to assist in your recovery from a concussion and neuromuscular injuries.
CBS has been developed over the last 18 years with the assistance of the U.S. Department of Defense.
CBS is a CPT reimbursable product with codes for medical treatment surrounding concussion, post-concussion syndrome, mobility assessment (risk of fall), neuropsychological testing, postural stability and rehabilitation.
