Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Intervention aerobic exercise (AER)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Participants with traumatic brain injury (TBI) that are enrolled in a comprehensive rehabilitation program (R) will be engaged in an aerobic exercise program (AER). These participants will also receive standard rehabilitation which includes exercise within the physical therapy session. Given that the duration of the rehabilitative program is variable the period of AER training will be no less than 4 weeks and will not exceed 30 weeks. Activity levels will be monitored.
Group II: control (C)Active Control1 Intervention
Healthy volunteers' responsiveness to exercise and activity levels will be determined to detect TBI effects.
Group III: rehabilitation (R)Active Control1 Intervention
Participants with traumatic brain injury that are enrolled in a comprehensive rehabilitation program. These participants will receive standard rehabilitation. Given that the duration of the rehabilitative program is variable the duration of participation will be no less than 4 weeks and will not exceed 30 weeks. Activity levels will be monitored.
