Study Summary

This trial will test a 14-day exercise program on app to help young adults with mild traumatic brain injury improve cognition and movement.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for adults aged 18-40 who've had a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) in the past 3 months to 2 years. It's open to student athletes, Veterans, and ethnic minorities who understand the study and can do all activities. People with other serious medical conditions, psychiatric issues, substance abuse problems, learning disorders or ADHD are not eligible.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The trial tests a mobile app called Uplode that guides users through a virtual dual-task walking exercise program named BraW-Day for two weeks. The goal is to see if it helps improve cognition, sensorimotor functions, and other areas affected by mTBI.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this intervention involves physical exercise and cognitive tasks using an app, potential side effects may include typical exercise-related discomforts such as muscle soreness or fatigue.

Experimental Treatment

Active Control

Group I: InterventionExperimental Treatment1 Intervention

The intervention group will be asked to visit the UNLV study site three times to evaluate baseline (T1), post-intervention (T2), and at 1-month post-intervention (T3) for functional assessments and saliva collection. Each participant will complete the BraW-Day program between baseline (T1) and post-intervention (T2). The program consists of 15-minute-long daily cognitive-walking tasks for 14 consecutive days. The program will be delivered on the Uplode mobile app. Each participant will be asked to perform three different 5-minute-long cognitive tasks (e.g., subtracting numbers or remembering long phrases) and one physical task (tandem walking or 8-shape walking) either indoors or outdoors at the same time for 15 minutes every day, which they will repeat daily for the next 13 days (2 weeks in total).

Group II: Wait-list ControlActive Control1 Intervention

The wait-list control group will be will be asked to visit the UNLV study site four times to evaluate pre-baseline (T0), baseline (T1), post-intervention (T2), and at 1-month post-intervention (T3) for functional assessments and saliva collection. Each participant will complete the BraW-Day program between baseline (T1) and post-intervention (T2). The program consists of 15-minute-long daily cognitive-walking tasks for 14 consecutive days. The program will be delivered on the Uplode mobile app. Each participant will be asked to perform three different 5-minute-long cognitive tasks (e.g., subtracting numbers or remembering long phrases) and one physical task (tandem walking or 8-shape walking) either indoors or outdoors at the same time for 15 minutes every day, which they will repeat daily for the next 13 days (2 weeks in total).
