Abstract

Aim: Students re-entering the academic setting after a concussion is commonly referred to as return-to-learn and, to date, very few studies have examined the return-to-learn aspect of concussion recovery. Methodology: Nine college-aged, full-time students who were diagnosed with concussions were monitored throughout their concussion recovery. The severity for five chief symptoms (headache, dizziness, difficulty concentrating, fatigue, anxiety) were recorded six-times per day through text messages, and daily phone calls recorded participant's behavioral traits. Results: We identified five behavioral variables which significantly influenced symptom resolution (music, sleep, physical activity, water and time) (p = 0.0004 to p = 0.036). Additionally, subjects reported math and computer-oriented courses as the most difficult (33 and 44%, respectively). Conclusion: We introduce a novel approach to monitor concussed students throughout their recovery, as well as factors that may influence concussion recovery process.
回归学习的初步循证建议:一项追踪脑震荡大学生的新颖试点研究
目的:学生在脑震荡后重新进入学术环境通常被称为回归学习,到目前为止,很少有研究调查脑震荡恢复的回归学习方面。方法:9名被诊断为脑震荡的全日制大学生在脑震荡恢复过程中进行监测。5种主要症状(头痛、头晕、注意力难以集中、疲劳、焦虑)的严重程度每天通过短信记录6次,每天的电话记录参与者的行为特征。结果:我们确定了五个行为变量(音乐、睡眠、身体活动、水和时间)显著影响症状的缓解(p = 0.0004至p = 0.036)。此外,数学和计算机课程被认为是最难的(分别占33%和44%)。结论:我们介绍了一种新的方法来监测脑震荡学生的整个康复过程,以及可能影响脑震荡康复过程的因素。
