Postconcussion Exercise Volume Associations With Depression, Anxiety, and Dizziness Symptoms, and Postural Stability: Preliminary Findings
Objective:
To examine the association between postconcussion exercise volume and changes in depression, anxiety, dizziness, and postural stability.
Design:
Secondary analysis of a single-site prospective clinical trial.
Setting:
Cerebrovascular research laboratory.
Participants:
Participants completed questionnaires and underwent tests of gait and balance within 2 weeks of a concussion (mean = 11 ± 3 days postconcussion) and approximately 1 month later (mean = 41 ± 7 days postconcussion). Exercise volume was tracked by weekly exercise logs.
Interventions:
On the basis of a previous work classifying exercise volume following concussion, we grouped participants according to self-reported exercise volume between visits as high exercise volume (≥150 min/wk) or low exercise volume (
