Traditional monitoring tools often lack precision or ecological validity. Neurophysiological approaches, including autonomic, central, and peripheral measures, offer objective means of quantifying fatigue. However, evidence in athletic populations remains scattered, with inconsistent methods and limited integration across measurement domains.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Eligibility criteria:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This review will consider quantitative studies involving trained adult athletes (18\u201335 years old) from any sporting discipline who report neurophysiological outcomes following a defined fatigue-inducing protocol.

Searches will be conducted in PubMed, CINAHL (EBSCOhost), SPORTDiscus (EBSCOhost), Scopus, Web of Science Core Collection, and ProQuest Dissertations and Theses Global (ProQuest Central), which also serves as a source of gray literature. Studies meeting the eligibility criteria will be screened and charted using a piloted extraction tool.
