When should ImPACT be given following a concussion?
We suggest initial evaluation 24-72 hours after injury. Consult an physician for interpretation of ImPACT test results. If ImPACT results are abnormal continue to refrain from practice and competition. The second ImPACT test should be administered once the athlete is asymptomatic. Once scores have returned to baseline level and symptoms have resolved an exertion test should be performed. Please attend an ImPACT workshop for contact Dr. Collins for a detailed return to play protocol.
