Baseline Testing for Concussion Management

St. Charles Hospital is proud to offer student athletes the latest advancements in concussion management…

Baseline Testing:

Baseline testing is one component of a comprehensive concussion management program. If a concussion is suspected, a follow-up test can be administered to detect subtle changes in cognitive function. The comparison of test results is part of a complete assessment that assists the physicians in developing an individual’s treatment plan.

  • Utilizing the imPACT™, neurocognitive computer test, clinicians from St. Charles Hospital’s Think Smart Program partner with school districts to implement a concussion management protocol which includes baseline testing for student athletes.
  • Individual baseline testing is also available at St. Charles Hospital
  • Education is essential. Our expert clinicians are available to provide education to coaches, trainers, students and parents
