NCT ID NCT05849064
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether personalized behavioral treatments can help adults aged 50 and older recover from a mild concussion. Participants receive either standard care or a treatment plan tailored to their specific symptoms, such as anxiety, dizziness, or headache. The goal is to see if targeted strategies improve recovery better than general advice.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
behavioral therapy (cognitive behavioral therapy, graded exposure, activity management)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a personalized, evidence-based treatment plan to help older adults recover more quickly from concussions.
What could go wrong
This is a small early-stage trial with only 50 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The treatments are behavioral and may not work for all symptom types.
