Implication

Prospective cohort study evaluates safety and feasibility of the MOVE protocol in symptomatic and asymptomatic children with concussion, highlighting its potential benefit in remote management.

Key Points

MOVE protocol demonstrated safety with minor adverse events in symptomatic and asymptomatic groups, indicating it can be safely administered remotely.
Feasibility was variable, as outcome measures were missed more often in asymptomatic children, pointing to areas needing improvement.
Participants showed significant increases in heart rate and perceived exertion, confirming the protocol's effectiveness in exercise intensity monitoring.
Virtual delivery of the GXT could enhance access to concussion management, addressing barriers traditionally faced in physical testing.
