As awareness of sports-related concussions continues to climb and dozens
of state concussion laws start to kick in, pediatricians are likely to see
an increase in concussion-related visits. Four key recommendations stand
out in a clinical report from the American Academy of Pediatrics Council
on Sports Medicine and Fitness for the management of sports-related
concussions:
.
Children or adolescents who sustain a concussion should not return to play
until they receive medical clearance from a health care professional with
experience in concussion management in young athletes.
.
Young athletes should not be returned to play on the same day of the
concussion, even if they become asymptomatic.
.
After a concussion, athletes should be restricted from physical activity
and mental exertion until they are asymptomatic.
.
Retirement from contact sports may be necessary for an athlete who has
sustained multiple concussions or who has suffered from prolonged
postconcussive symptoms.
.

.
The report notes that neuropsychologic testing is just 1 tool in the
complete management of a sport-related concussion and that computed
tomography or magnetic resonance imaging generally is requested for
someone with suspected concussion.
