Concussion Baseline Services
Each year, 3.8 million sports-related concussions occur in the U.S., with many going unreported and undiagnosed. Athletes in high-speed sports are encouraged to undergo annual baseline testing to evaluate normal brain function before potential injuries. These tests help healthcare professionals compare pre- and post-injury brain function to assess concussion impact and guide recovery decisions.
Comprehensive assessments include vestibular and oculomotor tests, neurocognitive evaluations, and tools like EYE-SYNC and SCAT3. Concussion Management of New York (CMNY) offers trusted baseline testing services, including group discounts and on-site testing.
