Concussions: Disease Overview

A concussion refers to a mild traumatic brain injury caused by a blow or jolt to the head or body that impacts normal brain function. Concussions can cause significant short and long-term effects on an individual's health, if not managed properly. Common symptoms include headache, dizziness, nausea, confusion, memory problems, sensitivity to light or noise, and difficulty concentrating. Studies show that repeated concussions or inadequate recovery between injuries can lead to more serious complications in a patient, such as post-concussion syndrome or chronic traumatic encephalopathy.

Concussions: Treatment Overview

Treatment for a concussion emphasizes allowing the brain to heal, with a focus on rest and symptom management. Over-the-counter medications, like acetaminophen (Tylenol), are commonly taken for headaches or pain. Medications like ondansetron (Zofran) help in addressing symptoms of nausea or vomiting. If an individual experiences difficulty sleeping after a concussion, melatonin or prescribed sleep medications may be recommended by a healthcare provider.

Epidemiology

The concussions epidemiology section offers information on the patient pool from history to the present as well as the projected trend for each of the 8 major markets. The publisher provides both current and predicted trends for concussions by examining a wide range of studies. Additionally, the report covers the diagnosed patient pool for concussions and their trends. The data is broken down into specific categories, such as the total diagnosed cases across different age groups and patient pools.

• It is estimated that 7 in 10 emergency department visits as a result of sports and recreation-related concussions and traumatic brain injuries occur in children aged 17 and under, with boys having twice the rate of visits compared to girls in this age group.
• As per the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), an estimated 5 to 10% of athletes suffer from a concussion in any given sports season.
• In the United States, approximately 3.8 million people are affected by concussions every year due to sports-related injuries.
• Contact sports, such as soccer, football, and basketball account for nearly 45% of all emergency department visits for sports- and recreation-related traumatic brain injuries and concussions in children aged 17 and under.

Country-wise Concussions Epidemiology

The concussion epidemiology data and findings for the United States, Germany, Spain, Italy, France, the United Kingdom, Japan, and India are also provided in the epidemiology section.

The epidemiology of concussions varies significantly between countries due to differences in sports culture, government policies on concussion management, healthcare access, public awareness, and socioeconomic factors, among others. In the United Kingdom, there were 356,699 hospital admissions of people with acquired brain injury in 2019-20, showing a 12% rise since 2005-6, according to the Headway, the Brain Injury Association.
