Sleep Health Intervention for Concussion Recovery in Adolescents

This study is testing a "Sleep Intervention" to help adolescents (ages 10-19) recover from a concussion (a mild traumatic brain injury). The intervention involves a personalized sleep schedule and sleep health recommendations. Researchers want to see if this personalized approach leads to faster symptom resolution (when concussion symptoms go away), better sleep, and improved mental health and school engagement, compared to standard sleep advice. You can join if you are 10-19 years old, have been diagnosed with a concussion by a healthcare provider, and are still experiencing symptoms. The study aims to enroll 54 participants, but its current recruitment status is unclear.

Study design
This is an interventional study that will randomly assign participants to either the personalized sleep intervention or standard care. It plans to enroll 54 adolescents.
What's involved
Participants will meet with an administrator after joining the study to receive their personalized sleep schedule and recommendations. The primary endpoint is measured through study completion, an average of 8 weeks.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
Concussion symptom resolution time is measured through study completion, an average of 8 weeks.
