PURPOSE: Texas Tech University Athletics recgnizes sprt induced Mild Traumatic Brain Injuries (mtbi s) and/r cncussins pse a significant health risk fr thse student-athletes participating in athletics. With this in mind, Texas Tech University, alng with the Big 12 and the NCAA has implemented plicies and prcedures t assess, identify, and manage thse student-athletes wh have suffered a cncussin. It is als recgnized baseline neurpsychlgical and pstural stability testing can prvide imprtant cmparisn data when perfrming subsequent serial cmputerized neurpsychlgical testing as an ancillary assessment in making return t cmpetitin decisins fr student athletes participating at Texas Tech University. This baseline data alng with physical examinatin, and/r further diagnstic testing will be used in cnjunctin when determining timing fr a student athlete t return t the classrm and t cmpetitin. CONCUSSION DEFINITION: There are mre than 42 cnsensus-based definitins f cncussin. A recently published, evidence-based definitin f cncussin fllws. Cncussin is: a change in brain functin, fllwing a frce t the head, which may be accmpanied by temprary lss f cnsciusness, but is identified in awake individuals, with measures f neurlgic and cgnitive dysfunctin. REDUCING HEAD TRAUMA EXPOSURE MANAGEMENT PLAN Texas Tech recgnizes and fllws the Inter-Assciatin Cnsensus fr Independent Medical Care Guidelines as well as the Year-Rund Ftball Practice Cntact Guidelines. These guidelines will be reviewed annually with the ftball caching staff. Educatin will als be prvided n reducing gratuitus cntact during practice, taking the head ut f cntact and taking a safety first apprach t sprt. Annually, by signature acknwledgement f Texas Tech University Statement f Expectatins, all caches agree t prmte health and safety educatin, a safe and cnstructive envirnment fr practice/play, and that the sprts medicine staff in cnjunctin with the medical directr and team physicians have the unchallengeable authrity t make all medical decisins in regard t a student-athletes medical care and return t play decisins. PRE-SEASON EDUCATION: All student-athletes, caches, medical staff, and athletic directrs will have annual educatin and/r training apprpriate fr their psitin. Once cmpleted, all parties will sign an acknwledgement f understanding f cncussin facts and the cncussin management plan. This training will address signs and symptms f cncussin t increase recgnitin and will educate participants n methds fr reprting cncern fr cncussin t health care prviders.
2 PRE-PARTICIPATION ASSESSMENT Student-athletes will have a thrugh, dcumented, review f their cncussin and brain injury histry when they first arrive n campus as part f their pre-participatin physical exam. Student-athletes will sign a statement in which they accept the respnsibility fr reprting their injuries and illnesses t the institutinal medical staff, including signs and symptms f cncussins. Baseline metrics including symptm evaluatin, cgnitive assessment, and balance evaluatin will als be perfrmed. This prcess must be cmpleted befre participatin in any rganized athletic activity at Texas Tech University. The team physician will determine final clearance and/r the need fr additinal cnsultatin r testing. BASELINE TESTING AND POST-CONCUSSION TESTING: SCAT3 / Mdified BESS: Sprt Cncussin Assessment Tl and Mdified Balance Errr Scring System All incming freshman and transfer student-athletes will have a baseline SCAT3 and Mdified BESS test as part f their incming pre-participatin physical. SCAT3 and Mdified BESS Testing results will be interpreted by the team physician in the management f the cncussin and in cnjunctin with neurpsychlgical testing, and/r any further diagnstic testing t determine when it is safe fr a student athlete t return t physical activity. Neurpsychlgical Testing: All incming freshman and transfer student-athletes will have a baseline neurpsychlgical test as part f their incming preparticipatin physical. Baseline testing may be repeated peridically as needed r after a student athlete has recvered frm a cncussin. Currently, Texas Tech utilizes the ImPACT cncussin management system. SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF CONCUSSION: Certified athletic trainers and athletic training students all need t be aware f the signs and symptms f cncussin t prperly recgnize and intervene n behalf f the student-athlete. These include, but are nt limited t: Physical Symptms Cgnitive Symptms Emtinal Symptms Sleep Symptms Headache Visin Difficulty Nausea/vmiting Dizziness Balance Difficulties Light sensitivity Sensitivity t nise Fatigue Lss f Cnsciusness Memry Lss Attentin Disrder Reasning difficulty Fgginess Irritability Sadness Feeling mre emtinal Nervusness Persnality Change Drwsiness Sleeping mre than usual Sleeping less than usual Truble falling asleep RECOGNITION AND DIAGNOSIS OF CONCUSSION: The recmmendatins in this prtcl fr the management f cncussins are based n review f the current medical Literature (see references) and the Big 12 and NCAA plicies fr cncussin management and are in full cperatin with Texas Tech University Athletics medical directr, team physicians, and athletic training staff. In any circumstance where a cncussin is suspected in a student-athlete, the first pririty after an initial assessment fr cervical spine r assciated head trauma, is t remve the student-athlete frm further participatin until a thrugh sideline assessment can be made. Initially, a SCAT-3 sideline evaluatin shuld take place invlving a certified athletic trainer and, if pssible, a team physician. A sideline pstural stability exam will be perfrmed, using the mdified BESS Test. Furthermre, if there is a questin abut the state f mental clearing it is best t err in the directin f cnservative management and withhld the athlete frm further participatin until a physician assessment can be arranged.
3 POST-CONCUSSION MANAGEMENT: Cnsideratin fr initiatin f an emergency actin plan and transprtatin fr further medical care shuld be cnsidered fr any student-athlete wh has a Glasgw Cma Scale (GCS) f less than 13, prlnged lss f cnsciusness, fcal neurlgical deficit suggesting intracranial trauma, repetitive vmiting, persistently diminished/wrsening mental status r ther neurlgical signs and symptms, r suspected spine injury. Emergency Actin Plans fr each venue are psted in visible areas at every lcatin. Crdinatin with the EMS is discussed and reviewed annually in crdinatin with the event management staff. EMS respnse times fr any venue n campus are within 5 minutes fr any emergencies that arise during a practice. Any student-athlete identified as having a cncussin, either by a team physician r a certified athletic trainer, shall be remved frm play fr the remainder f the day s participatin. It is necessary t schedule further evaluatin with a team physician and apprpriate fllw-up neurpsychlgical testing as sn as pssible upn return t campus fr the studentathlete wh sustains a cncussin while cmpeting in away events. When travelling, the athletic trainer may request evaluatin by the hst team s team physician befre travel hme. Initially, the student-athlete shuld nt be left alne. The student-athlete will receive serial mnitring f his/her mental/cgnitive status t detect signs f deteriratin. The student-athlete (and a cmpanin r guardian wh will be with them cnsistently) will be prvided with a clsed head injury symptm handut (see appendix) with written discharge instructins and prtcl fr emergency actin in case f symptm deteriratin. A symptm inventry shall be perfrmed n a regular basis until an athlete has been deemed t be asymptmatic frm his/her cncussin. Accmmdatins will be made t prmte physical and cgnitive rest fr student-athletes after a cncussin. Student-athletes wh have a prlnged recvery will be evaluated by the team physician fr additinal diagnses and apprpriate referral and management ptins. The Sprts Medicine Staff in cnjunctin with the Medical Directr will keep an updated list f utside cnsultants t be used when deemed apprpriate. Additinal diagnses may include pst-cncussin syndrme, sleep dysfunctin, migraine r ther headaches disrders, and cular r vestibular dysfunctin. Final return t play decisins will still be made by the team physician r his/her designee.
