Description
Importance
Determining the optimal volume of early moderate-to-vigorous-intensity physical activity (MVPA) after concussion and its association with subsequent symptom burden is important for early postinjury management recommendations.
Objectives
To investigate the association between cumulative MVPA (cMVPA) over 2 weeks and subsequent symptom burden at 1 week, 2 weeks, and 4 weeks postinjury in children and examine the association between cMVPA and odds of persisting symptoms after concussion (PSAC) at 2 weeks and 4 weeks postinjury.
Design, Setting, and Participants
This multicenter cohort study used data from a randomized clinical trial that was conducted from March 2017 to December 2019 at 3 Canadian pediatric emergency departments in participants aged 10.00 to 17.99 years with acute concussion of less than 48 hours. Data were analyzed from July 2022 to December 2023 …
