Biomarkers and
Surrogate Markers
However, recent studies lead to the suggestion that it may be possible to develop a panel of
clinically useful bio- and surrogate markers. These combinations of markers could provide
better clinical information and help clinicians evaluate the prognosis of patients at early
time points and may even help to identify patients at risk for clinical deterioration after
mild TBI.
Promising candidates such as SBDPs, apoptosis markers, and maybe a combination of two
or more glial or neuronal markers (S-100-β, GFAP, NSE) need to be evaluated in future
studies using larger sample sizes to be able to reach this goal
