These studies suggest eliminating body checking in youth ice hockey and using mouthguards in contact sports can significantly reduce concussion risk, while repetitive concussions and head-impact exposure may increase the risk of cognitive decline, neurobehavioral changes, and neurodegenerative disease in athletes.
Sports-related concussions are a significant concern due to their immediate and long-term health impacts. Research has focused on strategies to reduce the risk of concussions and understanding their long-term cognitive and neuropsychiatric consequences.
To reduce the risk of sports-related concussions, the use of protective gear, implementation of policy changes, and targeted training and education are effective strategies. Long-term effects of concussions include potential cognitive decline and neurobehavioral changes, emphasizing the importance of managing both diagnosed concussions and overall head-impact exposure.
