PROJECT SUMMARY Returning to drive after an mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is an immediate goal for many individuals as they return to their daily activities. However, evidence-based guidance about when those with mTBI can safely return to drive is lacking. While an mTBI can lead to significant cognitive and functional impairments, little is known about how mTBI affects driving, especially among teen drivers who are at an increased risk of both mTBI and motor vehicle collisions compared to other age groups. The long-term goal of this research is to evaluate the effects of mTBI on teen's driving performance and inform clinical practice guidelines on when teens can safely return to drive post-mTBI and under what conditions. We will test the following specific aims: Aim1: Characterize the trajectory of driving from acutely post-injury to symptom resolution among teen drivers with mTBI compared to healthy controls. Aim 2: Examine the effect of cognitive load on driving performance from acutely post-injury to symptom resolution in teen drivers with mTBI compared to healthy controls. Aim 3: Examine the extent to which differences in driving performance between teen drivers with and without mTBI, especially under increased cognitive load, are mediated by acute post-injury neurocognitive function. We will enroll 200 teen drivers ages 16-19 years from two study sites to increase racial, geographic, and socioeconomic diversity. Participants will include 100 teen drivers (50 per site) with a physician-confirmed isolated mTBI and 100 (50 per site) healthy controls with no history of TBI matched for age, sex, driving experience, and athlete status. Primary driving outcomes will be assessed using two innovative, complementary approaches: 1) high-fidelity driving simulators will be used to assess driving performance under 4 experimental study conditions at up to 9 time points: acutely post-injury (≤ 96 hours of injury) and then weekly until symptom resolution or 8 weeks post-injury, whichever occurs first; 2) self-report surveys of real- world driving behaviors will be completed by all participants daily. This is the first study to longitudinally evaluate teen driving after mTBI from acutely post-injury to symptom resolution. The study will fill critical gaps by providing evidence on how increased cognitive load and underlying neurocognitive function post-injury may impact driving performance. Our results will have a significant impact on clinical practice and guidelines by providing evidence to inform the development of clinical return to drive guidelines, and to help healthcare providers make informed clinical recommendations regarding when a teen can safely return to drive after mTBI.

项目总结 对于许多人来说，在轻度创伤性脑损伤(MTBI)后重返驾驶是一个紧迫的目标，因为他们 回到他们的日常活动中。然而，关于mTBI患者何时可以安全的循证指导 缺少返回驾驶的机会。虽然mTBI会导致严重的认知和功能障碍，但几乎没有 知道mTBI如何影响驾驶，特别是在青少年司机中，他们患上这两种疾病的风险都增加了 MTBI和机动车碰撞与其他年龄段的比较。这项研究的长期目标是 评估mTBI对青少年驾驶能力的影响，并告知临床实践指南 青少年在mTBI后以及在什么条件下可以安全地返回驾驶。我们将测试以下具体目标： 目的1：描述青少年司机从急性受伤到症状缓解的驾驶轨迹 与健康对照组进行比较。目标2：考察认知负荷对驾驶表现的影响 与健康对照组相比，患有mTBI的青少年司机从急性损伤后到症状缓解。目标3： 研究有无mTBI的青少年司机在驾驶表现上的差异程度， 尤其是在认知负荷增加的情况下，是由急性损伤后神经认知功能介导的。 我们将从两个学习地点招募200名16-19岁的青少年司机，以增加种族、地域和 社会经济多样性。参与者将包括100名青少年司机(每个站点50名)和一名医生确认 与年龄、性别、驾驶相匹配的100名(每个部位50人)无脑损伤病史的健康对照。 经验和运动员身份。将使用两个创新的、 互补方法：1)将使用高保真驾驶模拟器来评估驾驶性能 在最多9个时间点的4个实验研究条件下：急性损伤后(≤96小时损伤)，然后 每周，直至症状缓解或受伤后8周，以最先发生者为准；2)对实际- 世界驾驶行为将由所有参与者每天完成。这是第一次纵向研究。 评估青少年在mTBI后的驾驶情况，从受伤后的急性反应到症状缓解。这项研究将填补关键空白 通过提供证据说明损伤后认知负荷和潜在的神经认知功能如何增加 影响驾驶性能。我们的结果将对临床实践和指南产生重大影响 提供证据，告知临床回归的发展，以推动指南，并帮助医疗保健 对于青少年在以下情况下何时可以安全地返回驾车，供应商提供了明智的临床建议 MTBI。
