32 (18B) Longitudinal pupillary light reflex testing compared to sensory organisation testing as a decision support tool in concussion management – a pilot feasibility study
<.001), Physical (b =.23, p=.023) and Emotional (b=.19, p=.007) subscales of the CQOL-Y contributed uniquely to the PCSI score on day 3 post-concussion, accounting for 64.7% of the variance in the PCSI (figure 1).Day 10 data yielded standardized coefficients and p-values indicating that the Cognitive (b=.35, p-value <.001), Fatigue (b =.35, p=.023) and Emotional (b=.27, p=.003) subscales of the CQOL-Y contributed uniquely to the PCSI score on day 10 post-concussion, also accounting for 64.7% of the variance in the PCSI.Conclusions Adolescent perceptions of their cognitive and emotional quality of life contributed significantly and validated overall symptom reports.Adding the CQOL-Y to the concussion evaluation may provide clinicians additional information to support recovery.
