Concussion is a complicated injury that can result in multi-system impairments and can often be challenging to identify. The recommendations in this population are continuously evolving based on ever-changing evidence and therefore can be difficult to keep up with. In this Robert Sbordone Memorial mTBI/Concussion webinar, Cristin Beazley, PT, DPT will discuss the latest evidence-based recommendations for management of concussion and concussion-related injuries across populations and rehab settings.

• Identify the most common symptomatology as well as noted impairments after a concussive event.
• Discuss when it is appropriate to refer to interdisciplinary team members for concussion management.
• Provide a high-level overview of the current state of the evidence related to the various areas of concussion management.

Fees:

• $50 for professionals. Includes 1 ACBIS CEU.
• Free for survivors/family members.
