Creatine Supplementation in Concussion Recovery
This study is looking at whether taking creatine, a dietary supplement, can help people recover faster from a concussion. Researchers want to see if individuals who take creatine become symptom-free sooner than those who don't. They will also compare how well people perform on concussion tests (like those for memory, balance, and thinking skills) once their symptoms are gone. You might be able to join if you are 18-35 years old and have been diagnosed with a concussion within the last 72 hours. The study is currently recruiting about 20 participants.
- Study design
- This interventional study plans to enroll 20 participants to compare concussion recovery with and without creatine supplementation.
- What's involved
- You would meet with the research team after a concussion diagnosis to learn about the study, give consent, complete a symptom checklist and questionnaire, and receive creatine.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- Your recovery will be assessed until you are symptom-free, for up to 100 weeks.
