Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study will evaluate a combination of a novel Dual-task regime together with other already known tests in terms of defining when an athlete is ready to return to play after a concussion.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In this prospective study, we will evaluate a combination of a novel facilitating agility Dual-task regime together with sport concussion assessment tool -5 (SCAT5), Vestibular/Ocular-Motor Screening for Concussion, Agility T-test, Joint repositions error test and Pain Catastrophizing Scale (PCS) in terms of defining when an athlete is ready to return to play after a concussion. We will investigate if a novel facilitating agility Dual-task test together with already widely used tests, can identify more athletes that after a concussion still isn't ready to return to play, due to a physiological deficit. We will test as many athletes as possible each season and when an athlete suffer a concussion, we will follow them to see when they reach their baseline level. As previous studies show a over representation of new injuries in athletes returning to play after a concussion, we will also register injuries from all included subjects in terms of injuries each year, to evaluate if athletes following our recommendations have a lower injury rate after returning to play after a concussion. We also hope to be able to get more knowledge about how pain catastrophizing is related to duration of concussions symptoms.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Athletes without concussion

We follow the athletes in terms of injuries and make a baseline test each season.

Novel facilitating agility dual-task test combined with already known tests

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

We will investigate if a combination of a novel Dual-task test combined with already known tests can identify more athletes, not ready to return to play, although symptoms of concussion have stopped.

Athletes suffering a concussion

We follow the athletes in terms of injuries and make a baseline test each season and when they suffer a concussion, then we follow them with the same test as at baseline every 14th day for 3 months, after that they will get enrolled in another study.
