Objective: The primary aim of this study was to compare the immediate effect of contrast compression therapy with the use of Game Ready (GRT) on hyperaemic reactions in the upper limb on the application and contralateral sides, specifically in the context of mixed martial arts (MMA) athletes.

Design: In this experimental, single-blind, randomized crossover study, we recruited 30 male volunteers training in MMA (mean age: 28.33 ± 3.

Context: The Buffalo Concussion Treadmill Test (BCTT) for exercise intolerance following concussion may highlight underlying autonomic dysfunction. Autonomic function at rest and with exertion may be predictive of neurocognitive performance for individuals with sports-related concussion. The purpose of this study is to explore the feasibility and utility of combining multimodal assessments with heart rate variability (HRV) measures during the BCTT for individuals with a remote history of concussion.

Article Synopsis
  • * A systematic review of literature identified 45 relevant studies, revealing significant variability in RTP protocols influenced by age, gender, and sport type, with early intervention and multidisciplinary approaches leading to better recovery.
  • * The authors emphasize the necessity for standardized, evidence-based RTP guidelines to improve concussion management, calling for further research to develop universal protocols that account for gender and sport-specific differences.
