A - 55 Pre- to Post-Season Reliability of Blink Reflex Parameters in Non-Concussed Athletes
Examining quantitative parameters of the blink reflex may improve sport-related concussion (SRC) diagnosis and management because it may serve as an objective measure of injury severity and recovery. However, the psychometric properties of several FDA-cleared devices assessing the blink reflex are understudied. The current study compared blink reflex parameters pre- and post-season using the BlinkTBI EyeStatTM device to assess its reliability in non-concussed athletes.
A cohort of high school athletes underwent pre- and post-season BlinkTBI EyeStatTM testing. Statistical analysis included Spearman correlations, Wilcoxon signed-rank tests, and interclass correlations for ten blink parameters. Multivariable linear regressions assessed the influence of contact (i.e., soccer, football) vs. non-contact sports (i.e., baseball, softball, basketball) on changes in blink parameters.
Among 32 athletes with pre- and post-season testing (age: mean = 15.3, SD = 1.1; 53.1% female), 19 played non-contact and 21 played contact sports. Most parameters were not statistically different between pre- and post-season, except for delta 30 (W = 229.5, p = 0.015), time under threshold (W = 191.0, p = 0.003), and oscillations (W = 667.0, p < 0.001). Parameters exhibited moderate to excellent reliability (interclass correlations = 0.575–0.872, p-values = 0.001–0.004). Spearman’s rho values ranged from 0.435 to 0.828 (p-values = 001–0.005). Participation in contact vs. non-contact sports was not associated with changes in blink parameters (all p-values>0.05).
Preliminary evidence suggest stable blink parameters across a sports season in non-concussed athletes when measured by the BlinkTBI EyeStatTM device. Contact sport participation was not significantly associated with changes in blink parameters. The findings add to the psychometric evidence that the blink reflex can be reliably measured, warranting further study on its utility in concussion.
期刊介绍:
The journal publishes original contributions dealing with psychological aspects of the etiology, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders arising out of dysfunction of the central nervous system. Archives of Clinical Neuropsychology will also consider manuscripts involving the established principles of the profession of neuropsychology: (a) delivery and evaluation of services, (b) ethical and legal issues, and (c) approaches to education and training. Preference will be given to empirical reports and key reviews. Brief research reports, case studies, and commentaries on published articles (not exceeding two printed pages) will also be considered. At the discretion of the editor, rebuttals to commentaries may be invited. Occasional papers of a theoretical nature will be considered.
