Impact of exercise to treat postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome: a systematic review Open
Background Postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS) is a chronic condition associated with a high symptom burden and decreased quality of life (QOL). Exercise is currently considered to be a first line non-pharmacological treatment…
Adaptive Approaches to Exercise Rehabilitation for Postural Tachycardia Syndrome and Related Autonomic Disorders Open
Exercise is a well-documented, nonpharmacologic treatment for individuals with autonomic dysfunction and associated orthostatic intolerance, such as postural tachycardia syndrome and related disorders. Exercise has been shown to increase b…
Clinical Adherence to Concussion Practice Guidelines Open
Objective This study aimed to assess common barriers to adherence to the Physical Therapy Concussion/Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Clinical Practice Guidelines (PTCPG) and design an action plan to address these barriers. Setting Single Unive…

The Effect of Intranasal Plus Transcranial Photobiomodulation on Neuromuscular Control in Individuals with Repetitive Head Acceleration Events Open
Objective: This proof-of-concept study was to investigate the relationship between photobiomodulation (PBM) and neuromuscular control. Background: The effects of concussion and repetitive head acceleration events (RHAEs) are associated wit…
Instrumented Static and Reactive Balance in Collegiate Athletes: Normative Values and Minimal Detectable Change Open
Context Wearable sensors are increasingly popular in concussion research because of their objective quantification of subtle balance deficits. However, normative data and minimal detectable change (MDC) values are necessary to serve as ref…

Use of Reactive Balance Assessments With Clinical Baseline Concussion Assessments in Collegiate Athletes Open
Context Current clinical concussion evaluations assess balance deficits using static or dynamic balance tasks while largely ignoring reactive balance. Including a reactive balance assessment might provide a more comprehensive concussion ev…

A Hybrid Assessment of Clinical Mobility Test Items for Evaluating Individuals With Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Open
Background and Purpose: The Functional Gait Assessment (FGA) and High Level Mobility Assessment Tool (HiMAT) are clinical batteries used to assess people with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). However, neither assessment was specifically…

Reactive Postural Responses Predict Risk For Acute Musculoskeletal Injury In Collegiate Athletes Open
Identifying risk factors for musculoskeletal (MSK) injury is critical to maintain the health and safety of athletes. While current tests consider isolated assessments of function or subjective ratings, objective tests of reactive postural …
A Multimodal Assessment of the Heterogeneous Nature of Post-mTBI Dizziness Open
Dizziness after mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is commonly attributed to impairment within the vestibular system. However, oculomotor, mobility, and autonomic dysfunction can also contribute to patient-reported dizziness. The purpose o…
Reactive Balance Responses After Mild Traumatic Brain Injury: A Scoping Review Open
Objective: Balance testing after concussion or mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) can be useful in determining acute and chronic neuromuscular deficits that are unapparent from symptom scores or cognitive testing alone. Current assessments…
Interadministrator Reliability of a Modified Instrumented Push and Release Test of Reactive Balance Open
Context : Traditional assessments of reactive balance require sophisticated instrumentation to ensure objective, highly repeatable paradigms. This instrumentation is clinically impractical. The Push and Release test (P&R) is a well-validat…
Research Letter: Reactive balance responses after mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI): a scoping review Open
Objective Balance testing after concussion or mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) can be useful in determining acute and chronic neuromuscular deficits that are unapparent from symptom scores or cognitive testing alone. Current assessments …
View article: Reactive Postural Responses After Mild Traumatic Brain Injury and Their Association With Musculoskeletal Injury Risk in Collegiate Athletes: A Study Protocol
Reactive Postural Responses After Mild Traumatic Brain Injury and Their Association With Musculoskeletal Injury Risk in Collegiate Athletes: A Study Protocol Open
Background: Deficits in neuromuscular control are widely reported after mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). These deficits are speculated to contribute to the increased rate of musculoskeletal injuries after mTBI. However, a concrete mecha…
