Symptom-Targeted Approach to Rehabilitation for Concussion (STAR-C)
Sponsor: Henry M. Jackson Foundation for the Advancement of Military Medicine
Summary
Purpose: Investigators propose a three-arm RCT across two military treatment facilities:1) in-person STAR-C, 2) telehealth STAR-C, and 3) no treatment control. Outcomes will be assessed immediately and at one- and three-months post treatment. Hypothesis/Objectives: STAR-C, delivered in-person and via telehealth, will be effective in decreasing everyday cognitive complaints among patients with a history of mTBI. Effectiveness will be moderated by patient characteristics. Stakeholder feedback will yield a process map for broad implementation of STAR-C in varied clinical environments.

Symptom-Targeted Approach to Rehabilitation for Concussion
This study is looking at a shortened version of a therapist-direct cognitive rehabilitation intervention, known as STAR-C. STAR-C is focused on strategy use, and for strategy use to become a habit the person must have the opportunity for high-dose spaced practice. Thus, in STAR-C each session includes opportunities for repeated practice and participants schedule practice times between sessions. Sometimes a new strategy requires learning new facts, in which case the clinician chooses ingredients such as self-quizzing or comparing and contrasting outcomes, which are effective for learning new facts and concepts.
