Concussion Management
Concussion symptoms are subjective and can vary. Symptoms include headache, problems with vision, hearing, balance, sleep, focus, or behavior. Symptoms should resolve for most, but can last for months for those who have experienced more than one. Strict concussion protocol must be used when determining return to play. A SCAT 3 form is filled out by the patient. This must be completed periodically throughout the treatment, comparing the symptom scores. The patient must adhere to complete mental and physical rest until all symptoms resolve. A stepwise graded protocol is utilized and if the patient is asymptomatic through the entire protocol, then they are cleared to return. Non athletes undergo a similar protocol, but they progress through activities of daily living to see if any concussion symptoms are elicited.
