LITZ Test Insider’s Guide

By Roy Nelson

Have you ever been in an accident where you injured your face, your head, or your back and spine?

Well fight fans and accident survivors, I’m Roy “Big Country” Nelson, a professional MMA fighter who knows a thing or two about taking hits and recovering from injuries and cashing checks! Today, I have the honor of speaking with the renowned surgeon and ophthalmologist, Dr. David I Malitz with over 25 years of experience. We’ll discuss what is the LITZ Test, and why LITZ Tests are crucial for lawyers, doctors and fighters like me, and anyone who’s been in an accident.

As Floyd Mayweather Jr. would say, “I fight for that check. I’m in the check cashing business.”

Today in the medical and legal industry, it has been more competitive and cutthroat like fighting. Many lawyers and doctors have responsibilities to their accident victims by providing the best possible care and advocating for their clients’ rights. That is why it is crucial to implement a comprehensive intake protocol that prioritizes your clients’ and patients who have been involved in an accident. Dr. Malitz uses this simple tool that anyone can use called Symptom Severity Scores Referral System that was made for doctors, lawyers, and even the patient to see if they need the LITZ Test for further evaluation.

Litz Test

Symptom Severity Scores Referral System:

Anyone can check their symptoms that have been apparent after an accident. It is 20 simple questions. If you score 100 Points or more – LITZ Test Recommend Protocol is recommended.

DO YOU HAVE?

Headache 25 Fatigue 50 Clumsiness 50
Nausea 50 Depression 25 Loss of Balance 75
Unclear Thinking 75 Sleeplessness 25 Loss of Memory 75
Eye Pain 100 Disorientation 50 Irritability 25
Dizziness 50 Light Sensitivity 100 Face or Eye Trauma 100
Visual Disturbances 100 Nervousness 25 Diagnosis w/Concussion 100
Fainting 50 Neck Pain or Stiffness 25

Following an accident, it is relatively common for a person to experience some level of dizziness. While the injury may be diagnosed as whiplash, injuries to the neck and spine can also affect the area of the brain which is responsible for coordination, and balance. Anytime the normal feedback from the neck area, at the base of the skull, is altered, the signaling which sends information to our vestibular system may also be affected. Other symptoms include neck pain, difficulty concentrating, difficulty focusing, lapses in memory, a slowdown of the normal thought processes, and a feeling of movement, even while one is sitting still. The LITZ Test is a tool that helps detect and diagnose TBI-related injuries, soft and naked injuries such as concussion, detached retina, that might not be immediately noticeable or visible right away. The LITZ Test is cost effective and helps determine and gain valuable insights into the patients’ injuries and build a stronger case and faster recovery by utilizing the benefits of integrating these assessments into the patient and client intake process by providing objective evidence that is cost effective and helps supports the presence of injuries before using more expensive tools like MRIs and CT scans.

What is the LITZ Test?

The LITZ Test (Light Imaging Trauma Zone Test) is a tool that helps after an accident to detect naked injuries to the eye, trauma to the brain with 4 of the 12 cranial nerves on a cellular level using light and direct visualization. LITZ Test analyzes and helps identify trauma to the central nervous system, optic nerves, and deficiencies, damages and imbalances through the eye that affects the body and brain that is caused by an accident.

Why is the LITZ Test important?

The LITZ Test is essential for anyone who is in an accident like a slip and fall, work-related, or a motor vehicle accident that has symptoms because it helps us identify underlying issues that may have resulted from the impact of injuries from an accident. The LITZ Test is a specialized assessment that general doctors, physical therapists can miss, that is why Dr. Malitz and other doctors use the Symptom Severity Scores Referral System to see if they need the LITZ Test. By understanding these symptoms, we can develop and target a course of action and treatments. This allows the accident victims to regain their physical functionality and resume their daily activities.

I was told it is like when I am in a fight, it’s not just your body that takes a hit, but your eyes can also be affected because your eyes are connected to 4 of the 12 cranial nerves controls. Examples are like seeing stars, blurred vision, and loss of balance. By conducting the LITZ Test, the doctor can assess the extent of the damage and provide the appropriate treatment for a speedy recovery.

Embracing the LITZ Test as part of your intake protocol, you can provide comprehensive support to your accident victims. These assessments offer valuable insights, documents injuries, and provides objective evidence to bolster your case file. Prompt identification enables you to guide your clients toward appropriate medical care while building a strong case on their behalf. Reassured by the power of these assessments, you can confidently navigate the legal and medical process, advocating for your clients’ and patient’s rights and ensuring they receive the compensation and treatments they deserve.

I want to thank Dr. Malitz for educating me and giving our readers the knowledge that The LITZ Test allows doctors and lawyers to demonstrate their commitment to their clients’ and patients’ health and prevent potential complications or long-term damage using early detection for their patients’ and clients’ well-being.

Accidents can be tough, but with the right tests and treatments we can get through them. Remember, the LITZ Test is like a superpower for doctors and lawyers. You can find more information about the LITZ Test at LitzTest.com. Their doctor network will help you understand what’s happening to your body and find the best ways to make you feel better. Las Vegas, stay strong, stay brave, and remember that there are people who care about you and want to help you on your road to recovery even if I am in the hurt business.
