HOW SPORTS NEUROLOGY GOES BEYOND INITIAL CONCUSSION CARE

Concussion symptoms extend far beyond an initial head injury, making early evaluation and individualized care essential for recovery. Kyle Marden, MD, discusses the elements of a comprehensive concussion assessment, how rehabilitation specialists at Shirley Ryan AbilityLab can support recovery and when to consider referring a patient to a sports neurologist.
Dr. Marden recently co-authored “Sports Neurology,” a chapter in the recently published Sports Medicine: Study Guide and Review for Boards, Fourth Edition. The chapter serves as a comprehensive guide to sports neurology, providing detailed recommendations that address a wide range of neurological conditions.
