Objective Dual-Task Turning Measures for Return-to-Duty Assessment

Abstract

Objectives: Our overall objective is to expand our prior preliminary work on wearable sensors to evaluate objective dual-task turning measures for use as rehabilitative outcomes and as tools for RTD assessments. Our central hypothesis is that objective measures of dual-task turning will have high diagnostic accuracy, predictive capacity, and responsiveness to intervention in people with mTBI. Deficits in dual-task turning may measurably reflect impairments in sensory, vestibular, ocular, motor, and cognitive systems following mTBI that are not detected when assessed in isolation.
