Summary

This study tests a structured rehabilitation program for active-duty soldiers who have had a mild traumatic brain injury (concussion). The program includes low-intensity aerobic exercise, balance, and cognitive activities tailored to each soldier's symptoms and job demands. Researchers want to see if this approach helps soldiers recover faster and return to full duty compared to standard care.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Active rehabilitation program (low-intensity aerobic exercise, balance, and cognitive activities)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could help soldiers with concussion recover faster and return to duty sooner with fewer lingering symptoms.
What could go wrong
This is an early-phase trial with only 130 participants, so results may not apply to all concussion cases. The program may not speed recovery more than standard care.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Current active duty military personnel stationed at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. * Report to clinic/provider at Fort Bragg and available for recruitment within 2 weeks of mTBI injury date as indicated in medical record. * Initial provider diagnosis of mTBI/concussion within 2 weeks of injury, confirmed via medical record. Exclusion Criteria: * Third mTBI/concussion in the past 12 months as indicated by the medical record and/or participant self-report. * Symptoms clear at rest and exertion within 48 hours as indicated in medical record and or during study enrollment process. * Moderate-Severe TBI, or TBI not meeting the criteria for mTBI as indicated by provider diagnosis. * Polytrauma or other injuries preventing completion of initial study assessments in the 2-week window as indicated in initial screening/medical record. TBI, per the funding opportunity announcement is defined as: "being caused by (1) a direct blow or impact to the head, (2) a penetrating head injury, or (3) an exposure to external forces such as blast waves that disrupt the function of the brain." For the proposed study, only those meeting the VA/Department of Defense severity criteria of mild (normal structural imaging, loss of consciousness 0-30 minutes, alteration of consciousness or mental state up to 24 hours, posttraumatic amnesia up to 24 hours, and Glasgow Coma Scale of 13-15) will be targeted.
