Altered Central Multisensory Processing in Post-concussion Vestibular Dysfunction

US National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke grant open #nih-5R01NS119683-04

Summary

Project Summary/Abstract Patients with persistent post-concussion vestibular dysfunction (PCVD) demonstrate visual motion sensitivity characterized by visual and motion stimuli inducing vestibular symptoms. We hypothesize that patients may acutely benefit from altered weighting of multisensory, particularly visual, input into vestibular processing networks to compensate for central or peripheral vestibular impairment, although this may persist and become maladaptive, leading to persistent vestibular symptoms. However, the changes in multisensory processing that underlie PCVD are largely theor
