The Implementation of “McGill's Big 3” in an Individual with an Acquired Brain Injury who Ambulates Independently: A Case Report
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: Improved function, through balance and mobility, has been demonstrated in individuals with an acquired brain injury (ABI) following various exercise interventions; however, the feasibility of implementing "McGill's Big 3" exercises, typically prescribed for people with back pain, to improve function in people with ABI requires investigation. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this case report was to determine the feasibility of implementing "McGill's Big 3" exercises on balance and mobility when prescribed to an individual with an ABI who ambulates independently. METHODS AND MATERIALS: A 40-year-old female with an ABI completed an 8-week exercise intervention consisting of "McGill's Big 3" exercises. Balance and mobility testing were completed pre and post intervention, including, heel-to-toe standing; the foot tap test; forward reach test; pick-up test; stand-to-floor test; and three-meter timed up-and-go. RESULTS: The results demonstrated improvement across all tests. CONCLUSIONS: These findings support the use of "McGill's Big 3" exercises in a rehabilitation program, for individuals with neurological impairments such as an ABI.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
