TY - JOUR PY - 2024// TI - Acute concussion JO - Physical medicine and rehabilitation clinics of North America A1 - Plummer, Clausyl J. 2nd A1 - Abramson, Nicholas SP - 523 EP - 533 VL - 35 IS - 3 N2 - Concussions are the most common type of traumatic brain injury. They result from external force to the head that causes a neuro-metabolic cascade to unfold. This can then lead to a variety of symptoms in the domains of physical, cognition, mood, and sleep. Concussions are a clinical diagnosis but it is important to rule out acute intracranial pathology through a detailed history and physical examination in addition to possible head imaging. Treatment should include an individualized approach that focuses on what domains are affected after concussion.
