Meet the Googles Explores the Relationship Between Concussions
and Dementia Later in Life
.
.
Lois A. Butcher-Poffley, CC-AASP, a highly esteemed colleague at Temple
University, who is an invaluable professor in the Kinesiology Department,
shared a rather different article from Sports Illustrated Vault about the
impact of concussions on the wives of football and other sports retired
players when they develop concussions. This article was shared on the
SportPsy discussion Listserv that is hosted on the Temple University
Listserv server.

I posted the following message to SportPsy which links to past posts of
mine on concussions as well as providing links to sources found in various
Google search tools as well as by Scirus and Temple Summon Search.
I have added content samples to this post to provide examples of the
coverage this topic is getting in various publication venues.

There are cases, of course, where concussions do not lead to dementia, but
this is not always a silver lining. Consider this report that I posted
recently regarding a book publication:

"In late October of 1981, Enzo Montemurro, a compact five-foot-eight,
190-pound fullback on Cornell Universitys freshman team, took the field at
Dartmouth College eager to show the moves that had made him Torontos high
school MVP. Right from the opening kickoff, Montemurro looked like he was
going to have the best game of his young college career, gaining a total
of thirty-two yards the first six times he carried the ball. Then, on a
routine play where his assignment was to block would-be tacklers from
getting to a ball-carrying teammate, Montemurro bumped an opposing player.
The contact hadnt been particularly solid, so everyone was shocked when
the college freshman suddenly collapsed on the sideline after walking off
the field with no apparent problem. The team physician and trainer
immediately raced over to help, but within seconds Montemurro lost
consciousness and became completely unresponsive. He was loaded into an
ambulance and rushed the quarter of a mile to the Dartmouth hospital.
.
The instant Montemurro was wheeled through the emergency room door, Dr.
Robert Harbaugh, the neurologist on call that day, recognized that the
situation was dire. Montemurro was in a deep coma, and his breathing was
so irregular that he had to be put on a ventilator. A quick test suggested
that the pressure in his head was dangerously high. Harbaugh promptly
paged the hospitals chief of neurosurgery, Dr. Richard Saunders, who was
in the midst of morning rounds. Saunders ordered a CAT scan, which
confirmed that there was extensive swelling on the right side of
Montemurros brain.
.
As the two doctors conferred over what would be the best course of action,
Harbaugh looked down at the young Ivy League athlete lying motionless on the
hospital bed and thought, This is a person who has his whole life ahead of him
weve got to do something. Saunders told him that the only hope was to remove a
section of Montemurros skull to relieve the pressure on the brain. Saunders
wasnt optimistic about Montemurros chances, but he agreed that they should do
everything possible to try to save the teens life. Although the operation
successfully relieved the pressure on Montemurros brain, it didnt improve his
condition. Four days later his family decided it was time to disconnect the
ventilator, and Enzo Montemurro died."

One could say that the best cure for concussions and the harmful
consequences they often have later in life is the prevention of
concussions.

Many thanks to Professor Lois A. Butcher-Poffley, CC-AASP for providing
this opportunity to respond to a very timely and important post.
