Using concurrent gait and cognitive assessments to identify impairments after concussion: a narrative review
Understanding how a concussion affects an individual is oftentimes difficult for clinicians due to the varying symptom profiles reported by the patient and the multifaceted and heterogeneous nature of the injury. Accordingly, the interpretation of postconcussion performance can be challenging, becau...

description | Understanding how a concussion affects an individual is oftentimes difficult for clinicians due to the varying symptom profiles reported by the patient and the multifaceted and heterogeneous nature of the injury. Accordingly, the interpretation of postconcussion performance can be challenging, because many different testing paradigms have been reported as potentially useful in the literature. Among the types of tests clinicians use to understand how concussion affects an individual, both gait and neurocognitive evaluations have demonstrated utility. Our purpose is to describe how combined gait and cognitive (i.e., dual task), as well as single-task gait and computerized neurocognitive examinations can assist clinical decision-making. |
