Primary care management of concussion in Canada.

Abstract:

:Concussion has emerged as an important public health issue affecting thousands of Canadians annually. Health care providers including paediatricians, family and emergency medicine physicians, nurses, and nurse practitioners are commonly tasked with the responsibility of providing primary care to patients with acute concussion and those with persistent post-concussion symptoms. In July 2017, Parachute, in collaboration with the Public Health Agency of Canada and Sport Canada released the Canadian Guideline on Concussion in Sport that outlines a standardized and evidence-based approach to the recognition, diagnosis, and management of youth and adults with suspected concussion. In this report, we provide a brief overview of the important roles of primary care providers in the medical assessment, management, and prevention of concussion as outlined in this national best practice guideline.
