Fortunately, more and more research is being carried out on the subject, and health professionals are learning more about it(1). This growing concern is a consequence of recent discoveries concerning the potentially harmful long-term repercussions of concussions (2-10). To minimize these harmful effects, it&#8217;s vital to be able to identify concussion when it occurs. To do this, you need to know what a concussion is.<\/p>\n<p>Concussion is a clinical diagnosis based on observation of the injury mechanism and certain signs and symptoms. More specifically, it is a dysfunction in neuronal metabolism and microscopic brain anatomy following impact(12,14). In short, the movement of the brain within the skull, which is not necessarily secondary to a blow to the head, leads to metabolic changes that can result in an amalgam of signs and symptoms such as (11):<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Headache<\/li>\n<li>&#8220;Pressure in the skull<\/li>\n<li>Neck pain<\/li>\n<li>Nausea or vomiting<\/li>\n<li>Dizziness<\/li>\n<li>Blurred vision<\/li>\n<li>Balance problem<\/li>\n<li>Light sensitivity<\/li>\n<li>Noise sensitivity<\/li>\n<li>Feeling slowed down<\/li>\n<li>A feeling of being &#8220;in the fog<\/li>\n<li>Not feeling normal<\/li>\n<li>Concentration problems<\/li>\n<li>Memory problems<\/li>\n<li>Fatigue or no energy<\/li>\n<li>Confusion<\/li>\n<li>Sleepiness<\/li>\n<li>Difficulty falling asleep<\/li>\n<li>Increased emotionality<\/li>\n<li>Irritability<\/li>\n<li>Sadness<\/li>\n<li>Nervousness or anxiety<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As soon as it is suspected that a player has suffered a concussion, he or she should be removed from the game and assessed by a medical professional(11). The duration of symptoms can range from a few minutes to a few months, but can also be longer in some cases(12). Symptoms may appear immediately or several minutes after the trauma(12,13), sometimes making management more difficult.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to understand that no return to play is permitted on the day of the incident, even if the symptoms have been resolved. The return-to-play protocol should be guided by one or more healthcare professionals. It should be progressive and follow different stages depending on the evolution of symptoms and the athlete&#8217;s particularities(11).<\/p>\n<p>In short, it&#8217;s vital to identify concussion when it occurs. Remember, when in doubt, err on the side of caution. Some simple tools, such as the Scat 3 and Scat 3 for children, have been designed to assess concussion and are available free of charge online.<\/p>\n<p>Written by <strong>Maxime Provencher<\/strong>, M.
