Although the incidence and consequences of mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI) in secondary school rugby has been well documented, little is known about the incidence and consequences of repetitive sub concussive injuries - the so called very mild traumatic brain injuries (vMTBI). The aim of this study was to compare the end of season neuropsychological and electroencephalographic (EEG) status as well as the academic performance of players in a secondary school rugby team who, during the course of the season sustained only repetitive vMTBI to those players who sustained MTBI and a sedentary control group. 2014-10-20T07:16:17Z 2014-10-20T07:16:17Z 2004 Master Thesis Masters MPhil http://hdl.handle.net/11427/8623 eng application/pdf MRC/UCT RU for Exercise and Sport Medicine Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town
