Background: Youth concussion is common but there is a paucity of information on symptoms students report to school personnel and a gap in understanding what accommodations schools can provide.
Objective: To examine symptoms and provision of temporary accommodations in schools for students reporting concussion symptoms.
Design: Secondary data analysis of a trial implementing an evidence-based student-centered return to learn (RTL) program.
Introduction: Evaluations of clinical outcomes in service members with mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) sustained in combat have largely focused on neurobehavioral and somatic symptoms, neurocognitive functioning, and psychological/psychiatric health. Questions remain regarding other domains, such as gross or fine motor abilities, that could be impacted and are mission-critical to functional warfighters.
Materials And Methods: The objective of the current study was to evaluate longitudinal motor function in U.
Introduction: Longitudinal research regarding the pre- and post-separation experience has been relatively limited, despite its potential as a major life transition. Separating from the military and re-integration to civilian life is noted to be a period of increased risk of significant adjustment challenges, which impacts a service member in a multitude of areas. Active duty service members with combat-related physical or mental health or pre-existing adjustment conditions may be more likely to separate from service and more at risk for post-military service adjustment problems.
