Analyzing the Eye Gaze Behaviour of Students and Experienced Physiotherapists during Observational Movement Analysis
Conclusions: Measuring eye gaze behaviour during OMA using eye tracker technology is feasible. Physiotherapists made more fixations of shorter duration than students. Further investigation of how experienced therapists perform OMA and apply it to clinical reasoning may inform the instruction of OMA.PMID:34456422 | PMC:PMC8370730 | DOI:10.3138/ptc-2019-0047

The Potential of Telemedicine to Improve Pediatric Concussion Care in Rural and Remote Communities in Canada
Concussion is a form of mild traumatic brain injury that affects thousands of Canadian children and adolescents annually. Despite national efforts to harmonize the recognition and management of pediatric concussion in Canada, timely access to primary and specialized care following this injury remains a challenge for many patients especially those who live in rural and remote communities. To address similar challenges facing patients with stroke and other neurological disorders, physicians have begun to leverage advances in telemedicine to improve the delivery of specialized neurological care to those living in medically un...

CNS Summit 2017 Abstracts of Poster Presentations
Conclusion: This novel technology discriminates and quantifies subtle differences in behavior and neurological impairments in subjects afflicted with neurological injury/disease. KINARM assessments can be incorporated into multi-center trials (e.g., monitoring stroke motor recovery: NCT02928393). Further studies will determine if KINARM Labs can demonstrate a clinical effect with fewer subjects over a shorter trial period. Disclosures/funding: Dr. Stephen Scott is the inventor of KINARM and CSO of BKIN Technologies.   Multiplexed mass spectrometry assay identifies neurodegeneration biomarkers in CSF Presenter: Chelsky...

High Proportion of Deceased Football Players Found to Have CTE
A postmortem analysis of the brains of 202 former football players from the high-school to the professional level has revealed that 87% of these athletes had neuropathological signs of chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) —a progressive neurodegenerative disorder associated with repetitive head trauma. Moreover, as reported today inJAMA, all but one of the brains of the former National Football League (NFL) players showed neuropathological signs of the disease.“Nearly all of the former NFL players in this study had CTE pathology, and this pathology was frequently severe,” wrote senior author Ann McKee, M.D., of the...
