Concussion Management Throughout the Lifespan: Return to school, play, work and function
Copyright :
In this session, practitioners should be ready to view the evidence in concussion evaluation and management. Therapists should be ready to challenge their assumptions about concussion, specifically as related to prevention, acute management, subtyping, and return to life (sport, driving, school, work).
Clinicians should be prepared to analyze the evidence in concussion regarding the stages of recovery and progression, again with consideration for lifespan differences. Finally, those in attendance should feel empowered by this course to inform their concussion-subtype use of therapeutic exercise, intensity, errors, dual task overload, habituation, and pressure training.
This course will go WELL beyond a review of evidence in all three of these conditions. Attendees should expect that Dr. Studer will translate the evidence through video and case examples, for optimal application in the clinic.
