Read on to learn about concussion testing in our Nashville & Hendersonville walk in clinics, and how they will benefit your athlete.
What is the Purpose of Concussion Testing?
Concussion testing represents a comprehensive evaluation designed to establish an individual’s baseline cognitive function before any potential head injury occurs. This baseline serves as a reference point for healthcare professionals, enabling them to accurately assess post-injury cognitive changes and tailor appropriate care plans. As a proactive measure, concussion testing not only enhances our understanding of brain health but also empowers individuals with the knowledge needed to make informed decisions in the face of head injuries.
How Does the Concussion Test Work?
Concussion testing is a simple computerized test that tests cognitive functions such as memory, focus and concentration. The baseline test is a take-home test that patients can perform at their convenience, it will establish the patients “normal” cognitive function, creating a baseline for medical providers to compare to an individuals post-injury concussion test. A post-injury concussion test is the same computerized test as the baseline test, which will record patients cognitive function after a head injury has occurred. Your provider will use both tests to diagnose and create treatment plans for patients guiding you from injury to recovery.
