Ophea is pleased to release new and revised concussion protocol appendices based on the most recent research and the guidelines outlined in the Consensus Statement on Concussion in Sport, Zurich, November 2012. These new and revised concussion appendices replace the September 2012 concussion appendices in each of the 6 modules, and are effective immediately.

Developed in partnership with the Ministry of Education and the

Concussion Management Procedures: Return to Learn and Return to Physical Activity

·      
Tool to Identify a Suspected Concussion

·      
Documentation of Medical Examination

·
