- Title
Sports-Related Concussions in Youth.
- Authors
Rivara, Frederick P.; Graham, Robert
- Abstract
The authors discuss the major findings of a report by the Institute of Medicine and National Research Council in October 2012 on concussions in young athletes. They argue that the recognition, reporting and management of sports-related concussions in youth of all ages are affected by the culture of sport. They also cite the need for objective diagnostic markers for concussions and for objective markers of recovery.
