Chronic concussions symptoms are becoming an increasingly prevalent condition. These symptoms have a huge impact on peoples quality of life and ability to function. Supporting these patients during their recovery and helping them recover can be very challenging. This presentation will first identify the major determinants of concussion recovery and present a theoretical model that explains "Persistent Post Concussion Symptoms." This model can be used to explain the increase in many chronic conditions we are now seeing in our younger generations. Finally provide a systematic management approach to dealing with both acute and chronic concussions.
