Study Summary

A double blind randomized trial of light-emitting diode (LED) therapy for patients suffering from mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). Patients seen in the Sports Concussion Clinic with cognitive symptoms lasting for greater than 4 weeks will be randomized to either placebo therapy (controls) or treatment with LED therapy (cases). Both cases and controls would complete post-concussion symptom scales Delis-Kaplan Executive Function System (D-KEFS), and ImPACT studies on entry into the study and at weeks 3 and 6, or earlier if their symptoms resolve before the end of the 6 week period.

Primary Outcome

The primary outcome is mean difference on composite scores of Immediate Post-Concussion Assessment and Cognitive Testing (ImPACT) between entry into the study and completion of treatment (visit 18, week 6) for both the LED group and the placebo group. The mean difference is calculated by taking the mean of differences of the entry scores minus the 6 week scores. There are 5 composite scores on the ImPACT test; verbal memory, visual memory, visual motor speed, reaction time, and symptom score. Th
