Exploring tDCS-induced changes in EEG power and network connectivity in youth concussion: preliminary findings
Children and youth are at a greater risk of concussions than adults, and once injured, take longer to recover. The increased incidence of sports-related concussion/mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) in youth and the potentially serious long-term negative impact on their developing brains has enormous repercussions. While most young athletes recover within several days, many continue to experience symptoms for many months post-concussion. Symptoms are wide ranging and include – most notably: headache, sleep disturbances, brain fog, irritability as well as impairments in emotion and cognitive function (i.e.
