seeking is delayed ( Asken, McCrea, Clugston, Snyder, & Houck, 2016 ). At present time, it is estimated that between 12% and 60% of athletes delay seeking care after sustaining a concussion. Differences in sport-related concussion (SRC) care seeking have been attributed to a number of different immutable

Tywan G. Martin, Jessica Wallace, Young Ik Suh, Kysha Harriell, and Justin Tatman
A number of media reports have surfaced over the last couple of years citing many concerns about sport-related concussion (SRC) and its short- and long-term consequences. In particular, American football has received a significant amount of media coverage in this area. Published empirical studies
Does Early Low-Intensity Aerobic Exercise Hasten Recovery in Adolescents With Sport-Related Concussion?
Ryan D. Henke, Savana M. Kettner, Stephanie M. Jensen, Augustus C.K. Greife, and Christopher J. Durall
Clinical Scenario Historically, adolescent athletes with sport-related concussion (SRC) have been advised to abstain from physical activity until asymptomatic, at which point they may begin a graduated return to sport protocol. 1 Some researchers, however, have proposed that subsymptom

Clinical Scenario According to the latest international consensus statement on sport-related concussion (SRC), SRCs are considered to be a functional injury of the brain due to mechanical forces that may cause cognitive, physical, emotional, and sleep-related symptoms that impact the daily lives of
A Pediatric Perspective on Sport-Related Concussion
Tamara C. Valovich McLeod, Megan N. Houston, and Cailee E. Welch
Concussions resulting from sports and recreational activities are a significant concern in the pediatric population. The number of children and adolescents sustaining sport-related concussions is increasing and, as a result, legislation has been passed in all 50 states to ensure appropriate recognition and referral of pediatric athletes following concussion. The developing brain may make the diagnosis, assessment, and management of concussion more challenging for health care providers and requires the use of specific age-appropriate assessment tools. Concussion management must also include considerations for cognitive and physical rest, a collaborative concussion management team that includes medical and school personnel, and more conservative stepwise progressions for returning to school and to physical activity.
