Abstract

No evidence of aerobic deconditioning was found within 10 days of injury. Our study found attenuated cardiopulmonary responses to progressive aerobic exercise, which may be a cause for exercise intolerance in concussed adolescent athletes. Additional research is warranted to determine if this may be related to altered autonomic nervous system regulation.
