So after years of mulling over #concussion assessment management in disability athletes & using SCAT3/5 as best we can, there is finally something a bit more definitive- the 1st Position Statement of the Concussion in Para Sport (CIPS) Group, and it's coming soon to British Journal of Sports Medicine (BJSM) 👀
