Return to learn after concussion in children.
Canadian Family Physician Médecin de Famille Canadien 2017 November
Question Despite recent interest in the pathophysiology and management of concussion in children, as well as the ongoing concern about return to activity, advice regarding the type and length of cognitive rest has been inconsistent. What should I recommend to the children and adolescents in my clinic regarding cognitive rest following mild concussion? Answer Strict cognitive rest is not needed in those with mild concussion. Evidence suggests a decrease in usual activity to a level that allows children to remain asymptomatic, followed by a gradual return to learning, is appropriate. It is clear that either too little or too much activity is disadvantageous to recovery and can worsen outcomes.
