Subacute symptoms of sports-related concussion: outpatient management and return to play

Pierre d'Hemecourt. Clin Sports Med. 2011 Jan.

Most concussion symptoms resolve within the first week after injury. Athletes with persistent symptoms may manifest subtle behavioral and cognitive changes. The astute clinician uses various information to determine when these symptoms have cleared before allowing the athlete to return to athletic competition.
