Identification of Concussion Subtypes Based on Intrinsic Brain Activity.

ABSTRACT:

Importance

The identification of brain activity-based concussion subtypes at time of injury has the potential to advance the understanding of concussion pathophysiology and to optimize treatment planning and outcomes.

Objective

To investigate the presence of intrinsic brain activity-based concussion subtypes, defined as distinct resting state quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG) profiles, at the time of injury.

Design, setting, and participants

In this retrospective, multicenter (9 US universities and high schools and 4 US clinical sites) cohort study, participants aged 13 to 70 years with mild head injuries were included in longitudinal cohort studies from 2017 to 2022. Patients had a clinical diagnosis of concussion and were restrained from activity by site gu
