- Fitness
Dr Enora Le Flao (Postdoctoral Scholar, The Ohio State University) ,Dr Lizzy Williams (Senior Lecturer, Sport and Exercise Sciences, Swansea University) and David Powell (PhD student, Swansea University) discuss concussions in Rugby Union and instrumented mouth-guards, which have embedded sensors to measure linear and angular kinematics of the head.
Time Stamps:
0:00-4:20 Intros
4:20-5:09 What is the rationale behind all this?
5:09-11:23 How has this been previously done and where are we now?
11:23-12:59 Is the mouthguard a replacement for visual monitoring – medical threshold?
12:59-14:44 False positives and negatives
14:44-17:59 What causes concussion?
17:59-22:58 How do the mouth guards work? What are they monitoring?
22:58-26:17 Training and workload
26:17-30:25 Sex differences
30:25-32:03 Misconceptions and eventual aims
32:03-40:00 Further research
40:00-42:52 Other sports
42:53-46:20 Further information
46:20-47:28 Outro and goodbyes
