XLNTBrain is a comprehensive, turn-key sports concussion management system designed for athletes, parents, coaches, and medical professionals. Developed by neurologist Harry Kerasidis, M.D., the platform is built on over 25 years of clinical experience, providing a "virtual neurologist" to guide users through the entire concussion process from pre-season to return-to-play.
Key Features and Capabilities
The platform is accessible via an online portal and a dedicated mobile app, ensuring accessibility on the field and in the clinic. The system is divided into four main pillars:
- Recognize & Educate: Provides state-compliant online video education for athletes, parents, and coaches, which includes a mandatory quiz to document understanding of concussion severity and protocols.
- Baseline Testing: Offers a pre-season online neuro-cognitive test that includes emotional and balance measures, providing a comprehensive baseline score for comparison in the event of a suspected injury.
- Report & Assess: The Mobile Sideline Assessment Tool allows coaches and athletic trainers to administer simple protocols and a Mobile Balance Test from a smartphone or tablet. The system instantly tracks symptoms, compares results with the athlete's baseline, and automatically reports scores to all involved parties (parents, coaches, medical staff).
- Recover & Return: The XLNTBrain-tracker monitors the concussed athlete's recovery through a structured 5-Step Progressive Exertion Recovery Plan and daily symptom checklists. Crucially, it also generates an Academic Care Plan to guide the student-athlete's safe return to the classroom, which is a unique, fully-integrated feature.
Target Users and Use Cases
XLNTBrain is primarily targeted at sports organizations, including high school and college athletic programs, and medical clinics (MDs, neurologists, urgent care providers, sports medicine therapists) who wish to offer a standardized, clinical-caliber concussion management service. It is used to ensure compliance with state concussion laws, provide clinical data for medical clearance decisions, and safely manage the return-to-play and return-to-learn processes for athletes.
