Article Synopsis
- Recent brain studies indicate that athletes in contact sports experience measurable cognitive and sensory impairments due to cumulative subconcussive impacts throughout the season.
- This study compares a high-contact group to a low-contact control group and includes both male and female high school athletes, using 231 brain scans over a year.
- Results show that while both genders exhibit similar subconcussive impairments, female athletes respond more significantly overall, indicating the importance of monitoring these changes to improve health outcomes related to repetitive head impacts.
Objective: To ascertain the prevalence of and risk factors for post-traumatic headache (PTH) attributed to mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).
Patients And Methods: A prospective, longitudinal, multicenter cohort study of patients with mTBI and orthopedic trauma controls who were enrolled from February 26, 2014, to August 8, 2018. The baseline assessment was conducted as soon as possible following evaluation at the emergency department.
Objective: We sought to investigate the patient experience of telemedicine for headache care during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic.
Background: The use of telemedicine has rapidly expanded and evolved since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. Telemedicine eliminates the physical and geographic barriers to health care, preserves personal protective equipment, and prevents the spread of COVID-19 by allowing encounters to happen in a socially distanced way.
