Tracking injury risk after concussion and body movement changes
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at how being recently concussion-affected changes musculoskeletal (muscle/joint) injury risk and recovery during physical activity. It compares a group who is currently recovering after concussion with a similar healthy group to better understand risk factors over time.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You’re between 18 and 40 years old.
- If you’re in the concussion group: you were diagnosed within the last 5 days and you’ve been symptom-free for at least 72 hours.
- If you’re in the non-concussion group: you have no concussion history in the past 5 years and no lingering symptoms.
- You can complete online daily symptom and injury questionnaires (need email and internet).
- Your concussion must be related to physical activity (not blast, falling, or car crash).
- You must not have certain health issues that prevent electrical stimulation (if the study uses it) or certain implanted devices.

This study looks at why some people have trouble with balance and movement after a concussion (mild traumatic brain injury). Researchers will test your balance and movement to understand these problems better and help improve how doctors treat them.
This study tests a practical rehabilitation approach for people with a recent mild concussion (mTBI). You may be able to join if your injury happened recently and your symptoms match a “mild” concussion pattern on your medical record.
This study looks at how athletes recover from concussions or mild traumatic brain injuries. It aims to understand recovery patterns, which could help improve care for sports-related head injuries.
This study looks at how the body responds to sports exertion after a concussion in otherwise healthy teens. It may help improve concussion safety rules for returning to play and reduce the risk of symptoms coming back.
This study tests a type of physical therapy for athletes who still have balance, walking, or coordination problems after a concussion. The therapy may help you recover and get back to training safely.
This study tests whether adding special balance and eye exercises to standard physical therapy helps athletes recover from post-concussion syndrome. If you've had a concussion recently and still have symptoms like dizziness or headaches, this treatment might help you get back to normal faster.
