Publisher Description

COMMENTARY A common question among certified athletic trainers and other sports medicine professionals is "Which assessment tools should be incorporated into a concussion assessment plan?" Although a plethora of articles related to concussion assessment have been published this decade, Broglio and Puetz (1) provide one of only 2 meta-analyses to date in the area of sport-related concussion that synthesize this vast body of knowledge. The main findings show large negative effects for neurocognitive tests, postural stability testing, and self-report symptom scales at the initial assessment (1.59 [+ or -] 1.74 days; range, 0.003-7 days) after injury, providing quantitative data to support the multifaceted approach that has been advocated by several consensus and position statements.
