No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Each year millions of Americans suffer concussions as a result of accidents in sports, at work or through military service. Adolescents take the longest to recover from the effects of concussion yet no therapy exists to help speed their recovery. This project aims to see if a program of early guided aerobic exercise can safely speed recovery from concussion in adolescents and investigates some reasons for why this type of therapy could be effective.
