The exam takes about 30-45 minutes and is non-invasive. The test begins by asking the athlete some background questions relating to past medical history, previous concussions, sleep disorders or deprivation, current medications taken and other factors effecting neurological processing. The program is basically set-up as a “video game” type format. It tracks neurocognitive information such as memory, reaction time, brain processing speed, and concentration. It is a simple exam consisting of six modules that include word memory, design memory, Xs and Os, symbol match, color word match and three letters. The information collected will be kept confidential consistent with federal laws governing retention of medical data.
If the athlete is believed to have suffered a concussion during training or competition, the exam is administered again and the data compared to the baseline test. This information is then used as a tool to assist you, the athlete, the athletic training staff and treating physicians in evaluating the injury, determining how best to monitor recovery, and to design a plan for return to training and competition. Post-concussion testing will be performed under our supervision. Treatment decisions and return to play decisions will be made by the athletic training staff and treating physician.
All junior, incoming freshmen and new Sevastopol High School student-athletes are required to take this test prior to the start of school and athletic competition. If you have any questions, please contact Jordan Dielmann, LAT at 920-495-4301. Thank you!
