Summary

This is a Phase 1 study to determine (1) the safety of an exercise protocol in adolescents and young adults with concussion in the first week post-injury and (2) to evaluate the effects of mild symptoms on brain function using EEG. This pilot study will inform subsequent grant applications, and a Phase II randomized control trial that will explore the influence of age on an early re-introduction to exercise, as well as the influence of varying intensity levels of exercise.
