Clinical Trial Summary

This study investigates the correlation between a history of concussions and its effects on both sleep patterns and physical performance among athletes engaged in contact sports. By examining the relationship between concussion history, sleep quality, and athletic performance, this research aims to provide insights into the potential long-term implications of concussions on the well-being and performance of athletes in contact sports


Clinical Trial Description

This study delves into the intricate relationship between the history of concussions, sleep quality, and physical performance among athletes participating in contact sports. Concussions, often occurring due to the high-impact nature of these sports, have raised concerns regarding their potential long-term effects on athletes' health and performance. This research aims to elucidate whether a history of concussions influences athletes' sleep patterns and subsequently affects their physical performance. The study employs a comprehensive approach, utilizing both subjective and objective measures to assess sleep quality, such as self-reported sleep disturbances and objective sleep monitoring techniques. Furthermore, various metrics are employed to evaluate physical performance, including agility, strength, speed, and endurance tests tailored to the specific demands of contact sports. By analyzing the data collected from athletes with and without a history of concussions, the study aims to identify potential correlations between concussion history, sleep disturbances, and diminished physical performance. Additionally, the research seeks to uncover any potential mediating factors, such as psychological distress or neurocognitive deficits, which may contribute to these associations. The findings of this study hold significant implications for athlete well-being and sports medicine practices. Understanding the impact of concussions on sleep quality and physical performance can inform tailored interventions and rehabilitation strategies to mitigate the adverse effects of concussions on athletes' health and optimize their performance outcomes in contact sports. Moreover, these insights may contribute to the development of preventive measures and policies aimed at reducing the incidence and severity of concussions in sports settings. ;
