Pupilary screening system and method

A program product comprising:

• a computer-readable medium;
• and computer-executable instructions recorded on the computer-readable medium for performing a method comprising:
• collecting a pupil data profile comprising pupil diameter measurements as a function of time;
• determining whether the following conditions are met;
• (i) no more than two data points exist representing the same pupil diameter at separate points in time during a period of no more than about four seconds,
• (ii) a first phase of the pupillary reflex response exists, wherein said first phase is characterized by a period of non-constriction immediately subsequent to stimulating the pupil, said first phase having a duration of greater than about 100 msec and less than about 1000 msec,
• (iii) if two data points exist representing the same pupil diameter at two separate points in time, then the duration of time between said two separate points in time is greater than about 100 msec, and
• (iv) during the first phase of the pupillary reflex, the diameter of the pupil does not increase before it decreases;
• and
• providing an output indicating that the pupil reflex does not resemble a canonical reflex if one or more of said conditions is not met.
