- Abstract
The article discusses a study on a brief clinical assessment for vestibular and ocular motor impairments and symptoms after sport-related concussions. Results show a positive correlation of all Vestibular/Ocular Motor Screening (VOMS) items to the Post-Concussion Symptom Scale (PCSS) total symptom score. It concluded that the screening tool has shown internal consistency as well as sensitivity in identifying patients with concussions.
