1Ĭonsiderable attention has been placed on the assessment of mTBI within the sports context. This alteration in brain function is experienced by the person as feeling dazed and confused, not remembering what happened or in some cases losing consciousness. Mild traumatic brain injuries (mTBIs, including concussion) can occur when there is an impact to the body or head causing the brain to move within the skull, which leads to cell damage, neural pathway dysfunction and altered brain function. 10 Wellington Sports Medicine, Wellington, New Zealand.9 Wolfson Research Institute for Health and Wellbeing, Durham University, Durham, UK.8 School of Science and Technology, University of New England, Armidale, New South Wales, Australia.6 Axis Sports Medicine, Auckland, New Zealand.5 Trauma Service, Counties Manukau Health, Auckland, New Zealand.4 Sports Performance Research Institute New Zealand, Auckland University of Technology, Auckland, New Zealand.3 Accident Compensation Corporation, Wellington, New Zealand.2 School of Clinical Sciences, Auckland University of Technology, Auckland, New Zealand.1 TBI Network, Auckland University of Technology, Auckland, New Zealand.
