Investigation of Neurocognitive Measures of Sport-Related Injury

December 15, 2023 updated by: David B. Soma, Mayo Clinic
The overall objective is to provide an onsite diagnosis with subsequent return to play criteria, as well as, lower the risk of traumatic brain injury by primary prevention through cervical spine neuromuscular control and vision training. The central hypothesis is that improved understanding of neurocognitive measures and function will provide improved diagnosis of concussion and help reduce the incidence of subsequent sports-related injury.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change in blood metabolite profile
Time Frame: Through study completion, an athletic season average of 4 months
Blood metabolite profile change from baseline blood draws will be analyzed to determine what blood biomarkers (e.g. amino acids, glycerophospholipids (mg/dL) ) are most sensitive to the presence of a concussion.
Through study completion, an athletic season average of 4 months
