Controlled cortical impact (CCI) produces impairments in fine motor coordination lasting through 28 days post-injury. Moderate-level CCI increased the number of foot faults in the right hind paw at 1, 3, 7, 14, 21, and 28 days post-injury, when compared with sham-operated counterparts. ****p < 0.0001 versus sham-operated counterparts. Data expressed as mean ± standard error of the mean (SEM), n = 11–12 per group.
