Interventions

  • Specialist and Pediatrician Co-Management for Early and Effective Concussion Care Delivery to Hasten Your Recovery (SPEEDY Recovery) — BEHAVIORAL
    The SPEEDY Recovery program is a novel, concussion-specialist telehealth consultation and co-management intervention for the first 4 weeks post injury. The program involves a concussion specialist (clinical neuropsychologist) meeting with a youth and caregivers once per week via telehealth to provide: 1) behavioral health symptom management strategies including recommendations for headaches, sleep difficulty, emotional health/stress reduction, and cognitive symptoms, individualized for each youth based on their symptoms, 2) guidance to support school reintegration following concussion (e.g., study strategies, symptom management strategies for school, documentation for time-limited accommodations to support recovery), and 3) guidance to return to sports (if relevant). The intervention is designed to be delivered via HIPPA compliant Zoom, which allows participants to join the virtual meetings/sessions from any internet-connected device (e.g., computer, tablet, smartphone).

Study Details

Specialty concussion care can help youth recover more quickly but many youth face barriers to accessing concussion specialists. A care delivery model whereby concussion specialists are available to co-manage injuries with primary care pediatricians via telehealth can close the gap that currently exists in delivering specialty care to more youth. The long-term objective and intended impact of this project is to disseminate a care delivery model and manualized behavioral health intervention that can be widely deployed to make specialty concussion care accessible to more youth and earlier following their head injury.
