Rehabilitation in Post Concussion Syndrome
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
Physical exercise programme as an add-on: Consists of an individually tailored bike exercise program guided by symptoms, pulse rate and patient specific judgement of exertion monitored also by BORG RPE and VAS and progressively increasing time and level of resistance below symptom provocation
Control patients receiving usual care: No exercise intervention
Study summary
This project evaluates and quantifies the effects of an individually tailored exercise program applied to patients with long-lasting symptoms after concussion, minor traumatic brain injury, so-called Post-Concussion Syndrome (PCS). The project investigates the phenomenon Post Concussion Syndrome in four dimensions with a focus on both patient perspectives of PCS, an interventional physical program, a neurobiological basis for PCS through Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and finally through a 360-degree evaluation of the entire project involving patients and scientists in a reflective process.
Eligibility
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Change in Buffalo Concussion Bike Test from baseline measurement to week 12 — Change in Buffalo Concussion Bike Test at week 12
Buffalo Concussion Bike Test is an individualized bike test designed to measure the number of minutes that the patient can cycle without symptom aggrevation. The test is stopped when symptoms worsen judged by VAS, BORG RPE and pulse rate. The result is measured in minutes
