Abstract
Concussions are common in collision sports, and potentially catastrophic. Team physicians need to be adept at recognizing them and grading their severity. When can an athlete who has experienced a concussion safely return to competition? What clinical findings point to skull fracture? What symptoms call for neuroimaging? Dr Fick addresses these and other questions in this valuable overview aimed at physicians with limited experience in sidelines management of head injuries.
