Summary:The Concussion Dilemma: Are We Headed in the Right Direction? discusses the fact that sports-related concussion is a prevalent injury among collegiate athletes that has been studied extensively. On the other hand, as the video points out, one area that has not received much attention from researchers is the effect of a concussion on the health-related quality of life of these athletes. In fact, athletes who self-report a history of three or more concussions exhibit significantly lower scores on health-related, quality-of-life measures than athletes with fewer or no concussions. The video details why these athletes need to be monitored to prevent potential short- and long-term consequences of these deficits.
