What is being tested?
The Parkwood Pacing and Planning™ app is being tested. This app helps users manage symptoms after a concussion by assigning points for daily activities based on symptom severity. The study aims to enhance the app with personalized features using data analytics and machine learning.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this intervention involves using an application rather than medication, traditional side effects are not expected. However, users may experience frustration if they find the app difficult to use or if it does not meet their expectations in managing symptoms.

Experimental Treatment
Group I: Pacing and Planning AppExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The Pacing and Planning Program is a points system to aid individuals with an acquired brain injury/concussion in planning daily activities and managing symptoms. Activities are allotted various points, depending on the energy the task requires and the symptoms they create. Activities can include anything from grocery shopping to driving or watching TV, etc. Patients are allotted a number of points for a day, and therefore learn to sparingly perform activities. This results in a reduction of symptoms and improved recovery time.
