CDC online Concussion Training
A Partnership with the NFL Helps Clinicians Identify Concussions
Each year about 170, 000 young athletes go to their local emergency center for a suspected sports- or recreation-related concussion, according to a new report released by the CDC. This is an increase of over 60% during the last decade. And every day, health care professionals are challenged with identifying and appropriately managing kids and teens who may be at risk for short- or long-term problems.
