This study (Part 3) is designed to build a database including EEG, neurocognitive performance, clinical symptoms, history and other relevant data, which will be used to derive a multimodal EEG based algorithm for the identification of concussion and tracking of recovery.
Injured/concussed subjects will be studied at time of injury, and at 3 follow-up time points following injury. Subjects will come from the sports and other populations of concussed individuals. They will be matched with controls i.e. not head injured subjects who will also undergo the same set of tests and the same time intervals as the injured subjects. An additional pool of uninjured (not head injured) subjects will be collected who will be assessed at a single time point. This data will be used to populate a database for the purpose of deriving a multimodal concussion index.
Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Enrollment
268
The BrainScope Battery evaluation will consist of 4 tests to aid in the assessment of concussion: History, Physical, signs and symptoms (SAC, SCAT5), Electrophysiological Function; Neurocognitive Performance Assessment and Ocular Motor Assessment. BrainScope Ahead 300iP will be used to perform EEG and Cognitive assessments.

Derivation of algorithm for Likelihood of being concussed using multimodal inputs
Create a database of all assessments including brain electrical activity (EEG features including all frequency bands and measures (power, connectivity,complexity), neurocognitive performance tests scores (throughput measures), balance, and clinical/symptom assessments (SCAT5), to support derivation of a multimodal brain function/concussion index. (NOTE: All EEG and Neurocognitive features are expressed as z-scores relative to age expected normal values to enable combination)
Time frame: 6 months for data acquisition, with each patient studied from time of injury to 45 days after RTP
