10. Severe Traumatic Brain Injury
11. We will exclude non-English speakers because of the need for rapid communication before and during the use of technology.
12. Significant ongoing litigation or claims that impact research activities, as determined by the research study team. (Research may especially be impacted when mental health or pain is being evaluated for litigation or claims, such as civil and criminal cases, disability claims and worker's compensation).
