Concussion Testing for student athletes – East Central

July 13, 2023 @ 9:00 am 2:00 pm

What is baseline concussion testing?

It’s a series of physical and cognitive tests that measure healthy brain function before a sports season starts – and prior to an injury. In the event of a concussion, the results of these tests are used as a comparison to help healthcare providers make return-to-sport decisions.

Why is it important?

The disappearance of symptoms after a concussion does not indicate that an athlete’s brain has fully recovered. Baseline Testing provides data that gives providers a clearer picture of the athlete’s healthy state and what type of results should be achieved when the athlete is fully recovered.

All student-athletes in grades 7-12 intending to play during the 2023-24 school year should plan to be tested at a Concussion Clinic.

Reminder — this is a pre-injury assessment; NOT a sports physical.

Student-athletes:

  • Testing normally takes 10 minutes
  • Wear comfortable/athletic clothing and sneakers to the clinic
  • If you are not able to attend one of the testing dates, see your school athletic trainer
  • Pre-registration is required — click here.
