Filter by:The purpose of this open trial is to investigate the feasibility, acceptability, and effect of metacognitive therapy in patients with prolonged post-concussive symptoms after mild traumatic brain injury.
This study (Part 2) is designed to build a database including EEG, neurocognitive performance, clinical symptoms, history and other relevant data, which will be used to derive a multimodal EEG based algorithm for the identification of concussion and tracking of recovery. In addition, neuroimaging will be conducted at time of injury and following Return to Play (RTP).
The aim of this study is to investigate the early serum measurement (<6h after injury) of mRNA miR Let-7i, miR-16 and miR-92 in patients with MHI and intracranial traumatic lesions (CCT pos.) as compared to those in patients with MHI without intracranial traumatic lesions (CCT neg.). S100B serum levels will be measured in both groups. The usual risk factors for the occurrence of an intracranial hematoma (diagnostic algorithm) will be recorded. Additionally, a group of healthy individuals will serve as a control group.
The purpose of the proposed project is to determine if the VOMS is an effective screening tool to identify and track recovery of vestibular and ocular motor impairment and symptoms following mTBI, that corpsman-level medical personnel can successfully implement in combat and non-combat environments. A second purpose of the project is to determine if impairment and symptoms on the VOMS is more pronounced following blast compared to blunt mTBI.
This is an open-label, non-randomized, prospective, multi-site, parallel group (segment), hypothesis-generating study designed to collect data that will aid in future scientific and engineering exploration of correlations between clinical neuropsychological assessments and GE Research Pack II advanced MR imaging in mTBI patients. The results are primarily intended for scientific inquiry and engineering development purposes, and may be used in future regulatory submissions.
This study will assess the effectiveness of a portable goggle system in the diagnosis of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) in athletes.

Evaluation of a neck strengthening program as a potential intervention to reduce the risk of sport-related concussion in youth contact and collision sport athletes.
Evaluation of the utility of a multi-modal assessment tool in distinguishing between individuals with and without a history of mild traumatic brain injury.
A double blind randomized trial of light-emitting diode (LED) therapy for patients suffering from mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). Patients seen in the Sports Concussion Clinic with cognitive symptoms lasting for greater than 4 weeks will be randomized to either placebo therapy (controls) or treatment with LED therapy (cases). Both cases and controls would complete post-concussion symptom scales Delis-Kaplan Executive Function System (D-KEFS), and ImPACT studies on entry into the study and at weeks 3 and 6, or earlier if their symptoms resolve before the end of the 6 week period.
