Rosemont, IL (Vocus) 13 October 2010
NFL players with concussions now stay away from the game much longer than it published in the 1990s and early 2000s, according to research in the Sport Health (owned by American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine, from SAGE ). The average number of days lost with a concussion has increased from 1.92 days in 1996-2001 to 4.73 days for the period 2002-2007.
In an effort to determine if the occurrence of injuries and a concussion treatment had changed, the researchers determined two consecutive periods of six years compared to the circumstances of the injury, a number of symptoms, and a player? ? Time lost from participation NFL. These periods were chosen because statistics were recorded by shocks NFL teams using the same standardized format. He assumed the position of the player, the type of game, the signs and symptoms of a concussion, loss of consciousness and medical measures taken.
The researchers found that
2002-2007, there were less vibrations documented NFL game together, especially in the neighborhoods and the receiver. But there was a significant increase in vibration under tight ends. The most commonly reported symptoms include headaches, dizziness and problems with information processing and recall.
significantly less concussed players to the game even in 2002-2007 than in 1996-2001, back to 8% of players returned to in less than a week to play. This figure rose to 25% for players who lost consciousness after the injury.
â? There are a number of possible explanations for the decline in the percentage of players return to play immediately and return to play on the day of the accident and the days were compared to (concussion) in the last six years in the first six years, â? Authors write Ira R. Casson, MD, David C. Viano, Dr. med,. Dr. John W. Powell, Ph.D., and J. Elliot Pellman, MD These include the possibility? increased severity of concussion, a greater willingness to report symptoms players the medical staff of a cautious approach to the prudent management of concussion by the staff of the medical team and a possible effect of changes in p (NP) neuropsychological testing.â ????
