Investigating Event-Related Potentials and Eye-Tracking Measures in Hockey Players

Summary

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a health issue impacting athletes and no clinical treatment protocol, other than rest, is yet established. The efficacy of a treatment protocol relies on objective, physiological measures of brain function and ultimately a quantification of injury severity.

The present study aims to assess neurophysiological markers of auditory and visual measures of brain function using the NeuroCatch Platform and eye-tracking technology, respectively. The current gold standard of TBI evaluation, including cognitive and balance assessments, will also be captured.

DEVICE

NeuroCatch Platform (NCP)

The NCP plays a proprietary 6-minute auditory stimulus sequence of tones and words that elicit involuntary evoked responses in the brain. Tone stimuli elicit N100 and P300 responses, and spoken word pairs elicit N400 responses. The NCP proprietary software identifies the latency and amplitude (timing and size) of three selected ERPs. Latency and amplitude values are reported as empirical (measured) values.
