Guidelines/Instructions
Evaluate all signs and symptoms, ranking each on a scale of 0-6. Establish baseline score prior to the start of the athletic season. After a concussive injury, re-assess the athlete for each symptom. Add columns and compare to baseline score. Only consider return to activity if scores are comparable to baseline score. Continue testing every 2-3 days if symptoms do not resolve. Use with SAC and/or BESS to determine appropriate time for return to play. All signs and symptoms should be evaluated using a graded symptom scale or checklist when performing follow-up assessments and should be evaluated both at rest and after exertional maneuvers such as biking, jogging, sit-ups, and push-ups.
