The purpose of this retrospective study was to observe the consequence of sports-related concussions on athletes who were evaluated initially in a prolonged time frame regarding symptom recovery, cognitive recovery, postural stability recovery, and neuropsychological recovery to athletes who were evaluated immediately. This is a descriptive, retrospective chart review of physically active athletes whom were evaluated on an outpatient basis by licensed neuropsychologist at a Physical Therapy Clinic. Data was extracted and this study showed that “prolonged” athletes experienced more symptoms at time of injury as well as time of initial evaluation compared to “typical-acute” athletes. Furthermore, “prolonged” athletes performed significantly worse on the “eyes open, firm surface” portion of a balance assessment as well the visual memory composite on ImPACT. This study concludes immediate help sought from a licensed specialist in concussions is important to prevent delayed recovery.
