TBI Navigator vs Burn Nav Usage & Stats
The TBI Navigator App is the first product of the TBI Navigator Project and is targeted for decision support in the care and triage of patients with suspected traumatic brain injury (TBI) in a prehospital and/or prolonged care setting. The app helps users identify signs of brain injuries and provides recommendations for patient care.
The app is used for initial assessment and triage in patients suspected to have brain injuries ranging from mild concussions to cases requiring advanced neurosurgical care. The users of the TBI Navigator App include, but are not limited to, prehospital responders in disaster medicine, wilderness medicine, and prolonged field care/prolonged casualty care in the military. The app can also be used as first aid in sport activities that occur in areas remote from immediate medical care such as rock climbing, hiking, etc.
Users are able to record vital signs and patient notes in the app to keep track of a patient. The app walks the user through the following standardized assessments which, upon completion, provide recommendations to users for managing patients:
Glascow Coma Scale (GCS)
Tactical MACE (TMACE)
Alert, Voice, Pain, Unresponsive Scale (AVPU)
The TBI Navigator App compiles the results of the assessments into a “neuro medical record” of the injured person, improving ease of communication with emergency personnel upon arrival or via telemedicine.

Burn Navigator is a clinical decision support app for burn care clinicians.
Burn Navigator is indicated for use in the care of adult patients with 20% or more Total Body Surface Area (TBSA) burned, or pediatric patients, 24 months old or older, weighing at least 10 kg with 15% or more TBSA burned, as a fluid resuscitation monitor and calculator for hourly fluid recommendations.
Burn Navigator is intended to be used for burn patients of all ages, co-morbidities and weights from 1 to 400 kg as a fluid resuscitation monitor.
Enter example patient data in Training Mode to receive hourly fluid recommendations and see unique burn resuscitation graphs.
Burn Navigator has been used by leading U.S. burn centers since 2013. Retrospective clinical data shows:
o 24 hour fluids given reduced from 6.5 to 4.2 mL/kg/TBSA(1)
o 2.5 fewer ventilator days(1)
o Acute Kidney Injury incidence reduced from 15% to 6% in first five days (p=.089)(2)
