Symptom-Targeted Rehabilitation for Concussion in Canadian Armed Forces Veterans
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Cognitive Rehabilitation and Education for Mild Traumatic Brain Injury. Completed, enrolled 55 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The investigators are comparing two methods for helping improve everyday cognitive functioning in Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) veterans who have sustained a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). The two methods are 1) providing educational materials (Education Group) and 2) individual cognitive rehabilitation delivered by a trained Occupational Therapist or Speech-Language Pathologist (Therapy Group). The study is a pilot randomized controlled clinical trial (RCT), and will serve as pilot data for a future RCT.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
A strategy-focused intervention aimed at improving everyday cognitive function, structured to maximize treatment dose over a short time period. The shorter time period of the treatment therapy is relative to the one and only current randomized controlled trial of cognitive rehabilitation for military mTBI, the Study of Cognitive Rehabilitation Effectiveness (SCORE).
Educational materials, designed to help people with traumatic brain injury manage their everyday cognitive challenges will be provided through Zoom video conferencing software.
