Episode 1847 - Concussion 2.0

Dr. Britt Lademann // #ClinicalTuesday // www.ptonice.com  In today's episode of the PT on ICE Daily Show, Spine Division lead faculty Britt Lademann shares important updates on concussion management based on recent literature. Britt emphasizes the significance of recognizing and assessing concussion symptoms, particularly in the subacute to chronic phases, which are often seen in adult populations, including those involved in motor vehicle accidents. Britt also discusses the evolution of our understanding of concussions, moving away from the traditional mechanical perspective of the brain being a "bruise" inside the skull to a more nuanced view. She highlights the need for physical therapists in clinical settings to stay informed about the latest research and to implement effective assessment strategies for managing persistent concussion symptoms in their patients.
