  1. Vanderbilt Concussion SummitOctober 24, 2012Vanderbilt SportsConcussion ResearchV-SCoREGary Solomon, Ph.D., FACPNAssociate Professor, Departments ofNeurological Surgery and PsychiatryVanderbilt University School of MedicineVanderbilt Sports Concussion CenterTeam Neuropsychologist, Nashville PredatorsConsulting Neuropsychologist, Tennessee Titans

  2. Vanderbilt Sports Concussion CenterBecame operational July 1, 2011Joint venture of the Departments ofNeurological Surgery and Orthopedics/SportsMedicineImPACT CredentialedVirtual Center with multiple entry points in the VUMC systemStandardized assessments: ImPACT, BESS,Neuro history All ATCs and MDs have been trainedBaseline evaluations performed on >9,000Davidson and Williamson county students

  3. Our Mission StatementScott Zuckerman, M.D.Neurosurgery ResidentThe purpose of the Vanderbilt Sports Concussion Research (V-SCoRe) is to improve our knowledge in the area of sports-related concussion (SRC) and the outcome of these injuries in athletes.Goals also include identifying pre and post-concussion variables that influence recovery from a SRC and management approaches that can optimize an athlete’s return to the pre-injury level of function and performanceV-SCoRE meets quarterly.

  4. The Concussion in Sport Group has delineated several “modifying factors” related to concussive injury. Few of these factors have been validated empirically. AgeGenderReturn to playNeurocognitive assessmentMultiple concussionsMedical conditionsPsychiatric disordersADHD/Learning Disabilities
