Atypical Symptoms Following Concussion: A Comprehensive Review of Functional Deficits
CONCLUSION: While most patients eventually improved with targeted interventions like speech therapy, psychiatric care, or physical therapy, recovery trajectories varied significantly. Larger prospective studies are needed to determine true incidence rates and establish evidence-based treatment protocols.
Transcranial Photobiomodulation Improves Cognitive Function, Post-Concussion, and PTSD Symptoms in Mild Traumatic Brain Injury
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) occurs in millions of people globally each year, with mild TBI (mTBI) representing over 90% of cases. Despite the common assumption of full recovery, significant disturbances persist in many patients with mTBI, including cognitive deficit, headache, dizziness, sleep problems, and symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Given that effective treatment is […]
Understanding factors influencing the return to physical activity, perspectives of adults with concussion/mild traumatic brain injury: A qualitative study
Understanding the factors that influence the return to physical activity can help to modify behaviour to enhance the recovery of symptoms and physical activity. We conducted 14 semi-structured interviews to explore the barriers and facilitators to returning to physical activity in adults following a mild traumatic brain injury (TBI). The study design was informed by […]
Clinical Utility of the Sport Concussion Office Assessment Tool 6 (SCOAT6) and Other Select Multidomain Assessments for Subacute Sport-Related Concussion
CONCLUSIONS: The PCSI, timed tandem gait, and mVOMS components of the SCOAT6 were useful in identifying sport-related concussion. However, verbal cognitive tests, orthostatic vital signs, and clinical balance components were not useful for this purpose. The CP Screen, additional items from the full version of the VOMS, and ImPACT memory and processing speed were also […]
Persistent Post-concussion syndrome: pathophysiology, diagnosis, current and evolving treatment strategies
INTRODUCTION: Persistent post-concussion syndrome (PCS) following mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) represents a growing global health challenge that significantly impacts patients' quality of life. Despite advances in acute concussion management, there remains a critical need for effective, evidence-based treatments for chronic PCS, as current interventions show limited success in addressing both symptoms and underlying pathophysiology.
