Concussion, a type of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), has been defined through expert consensus as a complex pathophysiological process that is the result of head trauma, and produces an onset of non-specific signs or symptoms and/or changes in mental function. 1 For clinicians who diagnose and manage concussions, decision-making can be challenging and imprecise due to the limited clinical tools available to understand postinjury deficits, and the translation of knowledge from the underlying pathophysiological processes responsible for signs and symptoms to clinical care. 2 Although concussion incidence increased from the early 2000s to mid-2010’s, 3, 4 more recent research indicates that sport-related concussions sustained during practice have decreased, as well as recurrent concussion rates from 2013–2018. 5 These results suggest that perhaps medical management of concussion has evolved, and the use of updated practice approaches and preventative strategies may be helping to reduce concussion incidence. Despite these advancements, the physiological processes that underlie the signs and symptoms of concussion, accurate methods to reliably diagnose concussion, and the time course of physiologic recovery remain difficult to discern. 6Currently, concussion remains a clinical diagnosis with few objective and widely used assessments that measure physiological functions, 7 in part due to the lack of paradigms available to assess pathophysiological responses to injury in a feasible clinically-viable manner. Some approaches such as advanced neuroimaging, cerebral blood flow assessment, or fluid biomarker analysis allow for the detection of persistent biological disruptions after clinically observed recovery, 6 but the utility of these techniques within widespread clinical
