Sport-related concussion is a rising public health concern with claims that there is a concussion crisis in sport. An estimated 36% of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples participate in sport-related activity at least once per week; yet, there is a paucity of information relating to concussion assessment in this population. We present and discuss initial findings from research topic yarning about the Sport-related Concussion Assessment Tool (5th edition) with 25 Aboriginal peoples trained in primary health care or with healthcare or first responder role experience, with the aim of promoting discussion as to how best to ensure Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples receive appropriate assessment after sustaining a sport-related concussion.
与运动相关的脑震荡是一个日益引起公众健康关注的问题，有人声称运动中存在脑震荡危机。据估计，36%的原住民和托雷斯海峡岛民每周至少参加一次与运动相关的活动；然而，关于这一人群脑震荡评估的信息却很少。我们展示并讨论了关于与运动相关的脑震荡评估工具（第5版）的研究主题交流的初步结果，该交流对象是25名接受过初级卫生保健培训或有医疗保健或急救人员角色经验的原住民，目的是促进关于如何最好地确保原住民和托雷斯海峡岛民在遭受与运动相关的脑震荡后得到适当评估的讨论。
