Description |
Identification of rapid yet simple diagnostic tests for sports-related concussion is critical. These tests must be age-appropriate and capture relevant aspects of brain function. Vision encompasses nearly 50% of the brain's pathways, yet is not represented in current sideline testing protocols. We examined the King-Devick (K-D) test, a vision-based measure of rapid number naming, as a complement to the Sport Concussion Assessment Tool, 3rd Edition (SCAT3/Child-SCAT3) in youth and collegiate athletes. |
