Dual-Task Exercise for Mild Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI)

Description

The investigators previously developed a virtual 14-day dual-task walking exercise program and tested its feasibility with individuals with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) history. The investigators will test the feasibility and efficacy of a mobile app-version (Uplode) of the same 14-day exercise program (Brain \& Walk Exercise Every Day \[BraW-Day\]), on cognition, sensorimotor, and other functions in a group of voluntary young adults with an mTBI between last three months to two years, including student athletes, Veterans, and ethnic minorities.

Conditions

TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury), Brain Concussion, Clinical Trial, Rehabilitation, Cognition, Psychosocial Functioning, Walking, Vision, Ocular, Mobile Application, Saliva, microRNA, Exercise
