- - Persistent postconcussion symptoms (PPCS) can negatively impact various aspects of a youth's life, including daily activities, education, and social interactions.
- - The review aimed to provide occupational therapists with evidence-based interventions for helping youth with PPCS, analyzing studies published between 2013 and 2023 that focused on interventions pertinent to occupational therapy.
- - Findings indicated that Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) had strong evidence for improving sleep and educational outcomes, while psychoeducation and active rehabilitation showed moderate effectiveness; however, more research is needed on vision-related interventions, the CO-OP, and music therapy.
