Approximately 2.8 million people sustain a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) annually and can result in dynamic balance deficits. Turning is not routinely tested after mTBI. The Custom Clinical Turns Course (CCTC) is a novel course that measures varying angles with wearable sensors that has demonstrated deficits after mTBI. The clinical application of the CCTC is unclear when sensors are not available. Our aim was to explore lap time (seconds) as an outcome measure. To 1) compare CCTC lap times after mTBI with healthy controls (HC) and 2) determine if people with mTBI improve after rehabilitation.
