Problem-Solving Training for Concussion
Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), also known as concussion, is a common injury sustained by Veterans. While most individuals who sustain mTBI experience a complete recovery within several weeks of injury, many Veterans with history of mTBI report frequent and long-lasting neurobehavioral complaints and functional impairment. Though research suggests that …
Post-Concussion Syndrome in Professional Athletes: A Multidisciplinary Study
to examine the relationship between repeated concussions and late decline of brain function. In addition, all participants agreeing to participate in the study will be asked to will their brains to The Krembil Neuroscience Centre Concussion Project at the Toronto Western Hospital with the consent and full knowledge of their …
ERP Changes Pre and Post Military Changes
This study looks to investigate the cognitive effects associated with intense, military combat training regimens or so-called repetitive sub-concussive forces. Specifically, study participants will undergo cognitive testing in tandem with EEG recordings pre- and post-military training to assess cognition.
Pilot Study Evaluating brainQuant's Ability to Detect Alterations in White Matter in Diffusion MRI, Indicative of Post-traumatic Lesions
Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is a neurodegenerative disease described in boxing, but also in contact sports such as American football. Soccer, due to repeated headers, could also be associated, albeit to a lesser degree, with the development of this type of pathology. Indeed, it has been shown that playing soccer …
Exercise Reset for Concussion in a Military Environment
Our primary objective is to show that early, personalized aerobic exercise treatment safely improves concussion recovery, speeds RTD, and reduces persistent symptoms in CSM. Our secondary objectives include demonstrating the clinical utility of our March-in-place test and determining fundamental mechanisms for the effect of exercise rehabilitation on concussion recovery. We …
Pilot Study of BCAA on Sleep
Individuals will be recruited from the VA Portland Health Care System and the community affiliated with Oregon Health \& Science University. Traumatic brain injury status will be assessed as a contributing factor. Subjects will be randomized to one of 3 groups (BCAA or one of 2 placebo conditions) and instructed …
Evaluation of the Efficacy of STRATAFIX for Neurosurgical Cranial and Spine Procedures
This research is studying a device already approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat wound closures. Researchers are studying a large group of people to continue to learn information about the safety of the STRATAFIX suture and how people's bodies react to using it over a long …
Treatment of Acute PTH With a CGRP Receptor mAb in Military Service Members and Civilians With mTBI
This study aims to assess the effect and safety of erenumab compared to placebo for the treatment of acute posttraumatic headache (PTH) in military service members and civilians with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).
Concussion Recovery and Support Program
Pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing a novel intervention Concussion Recovery and Support Program (CRISP) for adolescents and young adults (AYA) 18-29 yo with concussion/ mild TBI.
Systemic Biomarkers of Brain Injury From Hyperammonemia
Ammonia is a waste product of protein and amino acid catabolism and is also a potent neurotoxin. High blood ammonia levels on the brain can manifest as cytotoxic brain edema and vascular compromise leading to intellectual and developmental disabilities. The following aims are proposed: Aim 1 of this study will …
