Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Pocket Guide Mobile Application Now Available 


            The Department of Defense announced today it has released a new
mobile application for health care professionals, the Mild Traumatic Brain
Injury Pocket Guide.  This application, developed by the National Center for
Telehealth and Technology (T2), gives providers a comprehensive, quick
reference that includes clinical practice guidelines for assessing and
treating service members and veterans who have sustained a mild traumatic
brain injury, commonly referred to as a concussion. 

            "This new tool is about providing clinicians with quick and
convenient access to clinical guidelines for concussion care.  It not only
allows the clinician to provide evidenced-based care but maximizes time
spent with the patient," said Katherine Helmick, deputy director for
traumatic brain injury. 

            The mobile application is free and available for download on
Android smart phones at
https://market.android.com/details?id=org.t2health.mtbi .  Hard copies of
the pocket guide can be ordered by contacting the Defense and Veterans Brain
Injury Center at [log in to unmask] or 1-800-870-9244.
