Sports Concussion Screening Clinic


A con­cus­sion is a brain injury caused by a jolt or blow to the head. It can also occur from a body blow that vio­lent­ly shakes the head. Unlike many injuries, con­cus­sions often have sub­tle symp­toms that may not appear imme­di­ate­ly. This makes them dif­fi­cult to diag­nose, espe­cial­ly in ath­letes who may down­play their symp­toms to return to play. Chil­dren, teens, and ath­letes of all ages are at risk. 

Signs to look for include dilat­ed pupils, slurred speech, wors­en­ing headaches, con­fu­sion, or loss of con­scious­ness. If they do show some of these signs, you may want to go to the emer­gency depart­ment for a phys­i­cal examination. 

QMG’s Ortho­pe­dics & Sports Med­i­cine Depart­ment offers a free con­cus­sion screen­ing clin­ic to area ath­letes injur­ing dur­ing a game or practice.
