Methods: Subjects:
The study conducted an analysis of effects of sport-related concussion over the years for athletes. The study was approved by the University Review Board. The research was performed with a total of 120 participants of each division of College athletics. The study was carried out on groups with about 45 concussed symptomatic athletes, 45 concussed asymptomatic athletes and 45 non-concussed control athletes. The group is divided into the groups for test and monitoring. The need of the variety of participants is due to each concussion has different effects to each particular athlete. The participants in the injury groups were divided evenly between half females and males. The age of athletes ranges from 17-23 years …show more content…
Before beginning the experimental study, all athletes had to read and signed a consent form approved by the institutional review board, which includes the involvement and risk behind the test. Measurement and calculation:
The study is measured by the variety of concussion testing through the years of the athlete. The data analysis means and SDs were calculated for each ImPACT, SCAT-2, SCAT-3, Military Acute Concussion Evaluation(MACE). The variable of the test for all athletes is included in the analysis for each assessment. Each test had a protocol for comparing the test answers. The impact post-concussion cognitive scores were compared with preseason results of the evaluation to determine changes in performance. MACE shows the effect of the brain see if the concussion is still there. SCAT2 consists of three primary indexes of a symptom inventory, the SAC, and a modified balance test based on the BESS. The sign is considered as self-evaluation portion of the SCAT2. SAC is testing the cognitive screen designed to determine an athlete’s current orientation, immediate memory, concentration, and delayed recall. The number of errors or deviations …show more content…
The study occurs covers in a 15-year analysis of the college athletics. The purpose of the experiment is to evaluate the athlete every year in college and then five-year gaps. The primary goal is to see any different findings in the athlete cognitive and motor skills as they age. The produce of research starts with a baseline test with symptoms test as they are concussed and control group. The athletes had Every few months after the first year of two-week testing. The athletes' clinical care setting in the laboratory, the athlete is evaluated by administering baseline concussion assessments. The college athletes have to release the history and testing of concussion baseline. However, before the examination starts, all athletes must read and signed a consent form approved by the institutional review board. The Baseline assessments were completed during the preseason when all athletes were healthy and free from injury. The concussion testing the groups of the each test to see what effect does the impact cause in the brain function. The trial started with the Symptom Assessment Scale (SAS), then break into the neurocognitive assessment for a concussion. During the self-reported symptomatic (SRS) timeline after injury, the athlete's symptoms were monitored and recorded daily. To begin to
