Sports-related concussion is an injury that continues to receive attention from both the popular media and sports medicine community. The many different symptom presentations and cognitive decrements that follow concussions, have made this injury difficult to detect and manage. Furthermore, concussed athletes should not always be entrusted to appropriately self-report their concussion symptoms; therefore the burden falls on the clinician and coach. Recent management recommendations call for using a multi-faceted approach to managing concussion, which consists of neurocognitive testing before (ie, baseline/preseason) and after injury. In addition age, sex, and previous history of concussion have been found to influence the risk and recovery from this injury.
与运动相关的脑震荡是一种持续受到大众媒体和运动医学领域关注的损伤。脑震荡后出现的多种不同症状表现和认知功能减退,使得这种损伤难以检测和处理。此外,不能总是指望脑震荡的运动员能恰当地自我报告其脑震荡症状;因此,责任就落在了临床医生和教练身上。最近的管理建议要求采用多方面的方法来管理脑震荡,这包括在受伤前(即基线/赛季前)和受伤后进行神经认知测试。此外,已发现年龄、性别和既往脑震荡史会影响这种损伤的风险和恢复情况。
