The Buffalo Concussion Treadmill Test (BCTT) is a standardized protocol used to assess exercise tolerance in individuals recovering from concussions. By gradually increasing the intensity of treadmill walking or running, medical professionals can identify safe exertion limits and guide aerobic rehabilitation plans. This test plays a key role in determining return-to-exercise readiness and managing post-concussion symptoms.
Establishes a safe exercise threshold post-concussion
Helps manage post-injury symptoms through controlled exertion
Improves cerebral blood flow during recovery
Helps manage post-injury symptoms through controlled exertion
Reduces the risk of symptom exacerbation from overexertion
