    Abstract Treatment of youth concussion during the acute phase continues to evolve, and this has led to the emergence of guidelines to direct care. While symptoms after concussion typically resolve in 14-28 days, a portion (∼20%) of adolescents endorse persistent post-concussive symptoms (PPCS) beyond normal resolution. This report outlines a study implemented in response to the National Institute of Neurological Diseases and Stroke call for the development and initial clinical validation of objective biological measures to predict risk of PPCS in adolescents. We describe our plans for recruitment of a Development cohort of 11- to 17-year-old youth with concussion, and collection of autonomic, neurocognitive, biofluid, and imaging biomarkers. The most promising of these measures will then be validated in a separate Validation cohort of youth with concussion, and a final, clinically useful algorithm will be developed and disseminated. Upon completion of this study, we will have generated a battery of measures predictive of high risk for PPCS, which will allow for identification and testing of interventions to prevent PPCS in the most high-risk youth.

    Abstract Importance: Pediatric mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) and concussion are a public health challenge with up to 30% of patients experiencing prolonged recovery. Pediatric patients presenting to concussion clinics often have ongoing impairments and may be at increased risk for persistent symptoms. Understanding this population is critical for improved prognostic estimates and optimal treatment.
    Objective: To describe pediatric patients presenting to concussion clinics and characterize factors associated with their recovery.
    Design, setting, and participants: This prospective cohort study included patients enrolled at multicenter concussion specialty clinics from the Four Corners Youth Consortium from December 2017 to July 2019, with up to 12-month follow-up. Patients were eligible if they were aged 5 to 18.99 years with a diagnosis of mild TBI or concussion presenting to participating clinics within 8 weeks of injury. Patients were excluded if the patient or their parents were unable to read or sign the consent document, or if the patient had a Glasgow Coma Scale score less than 13 or a penetrating injury. Data were analyzed from February 2019 to April 2020.
    Exposures: Diagnosis of mild TBI or concussion.
    Main outcomes and measures: This study used National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke common data elements, including data on demographic characteristics, injury details, history, neurological and neuropsychological assessments, and treatment.
    Results: A total of 600 patients were consecutively enrolled, among whom 324 (54.0%) were female and 435 (72.5%) were adolescents (ie, aged 13-18 years). A higher proportion of girls and women (248 patients [76.5%]) were adolescents compared with boys and men (187 patients [67.8%]) (P = .02), and girls and women reported significantly more preexisting anxiety compared with boys and men (80 patients [26.7%] vs 46 patients [18.7%]; P = .03). Significantly more adolescents reported preexisting migraines compared with preadolescents (82 patients [20.9%] vs 15 patients [10.9%]; P = .01). Girls and women recovered more slowly than boys and men (persistent symptoms after injury: week 4, 217 patients [81.6%] vs 156 patients [71.2%]; week 8, 146 patients [58.9%] vs 89 patients [44.3%]; week 12, 103 patients [42.6%] vs 58 patients [30.2%]; P = .01). Patients with history of migraine or anxiety or depression recovered more slowly than those without, regardless of sex.
    Conclusions and relevance: These findings suggest that identification of subgroups of pediatric patients with mild TBI or concussion at risk for prolonged recovery could aid in better prognostic estimates and more targeted treatment interventions.
