The brain vital signs framework is a portable, objective, neurophysiological evaluation of
brain function at point-of-care. We investigated brain vital signs at pre-and post-season for …

Brain vital signs, measured by EEG, were used for portable, objective, neurophysiological
evaluation of cognitive function in youth tackle football players. Specifically, we investigated …

There is a growing demand for objective evaluations of concussion. We developed a
portable evoked potential framework to extract 'brain vital signs' using …

Concussions sustained during college and professional football careers have been
associated with both acute and chronic neurologic impairment. The contribution of …

Background: Prior concussion studies have shown that objective neurophysiological
measures are sensitive to detecting concussive and subconcussive impairments in youth ice …

Recent work suggests that subconcussive head impacts may contribute to long-term
neurodegeneration; however, the risk thresholds are unknown. It was hypothesized that the …

Concussion is a major public health concern with nearly 4 million injuries occurring each
year in the United States. In the acute post-injury stage, concussed individuals demonstrate …

Studies of football athletes have implicated repetitive head impact exposure in the onset of
cognitive and brain structural changes, even in the absence of diagnosed concussion …

Recent literature suggests that sub-concussive impacts may influence cognitive functioning
across the lifespan. These effects are suggested to manifest as functional and possibly …

Impacts to the head are common in collision sports such as football. Emerging research has
begun to elucidate concussion tolerance levels, but sub-concussive impacts that do not …
