Summary
This project evaluates and quantifies the effects of an individually tailored exercise program applied to patients with long-lasting symptoms after concussion, minor traumatic brain injury, so-called Post-Concussion Syndrome (PCS). The project investigates the phenomenon Post Concussion Syndrome in four dimensions with a focus on both patient perspectives of PCS, an interventional physical program, a neurobiological basis for PCS through Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and finally through a 360-degree evaluation of the entire project involving patients and scientists in a reflective process.
