CONCUSSIONS UPDATE 2019
This presentation will provide an update on the status of concussion
comma including a discussion of issues such as recovery time, the im-
pact on brain functioning & treatment and rehabilitation issues. This is
an important topic as clinicians and researchers attempt to understand
sports related head injuries, traumatic head injuries associated with vi-
olence and war, and head injuries suffered as part of life including those
sustained in household accidents and motor vehicle accidents. A discus-
sion of predictors of clinical recoverywill be included including predictors
for return to work and school following a concussion. Recommendations
will be discussed including recommendations for treatment, exercise,
and medical intervention which might facilitate recovery. It is hoped that
the attendee we’ll obtain a clear understanding of the status of concus-
sion research and treatment as a result of this overview.
