!f lur! llrinli yorn'clrikl has suffered a concglslqn

Any athlete even suspscted of suffering a concussion should be removed from the game or practice immediately. No athletemay return to activity after sustaining a concussion, regardless of how mild it seems or how quickly symptoms clear, withoutwritten medical clearance from a Medical Doctor (MD) or Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine (DO). Close observation of theathlete should continue for several hours. You should also inform your child's coach if you think that your child may havea concussion Remember it is better to miss one game than miss the whole season. When in doubt, the athlete sits out!

Cosnitive Re.st & Return to Learn

The first step to concussion recovery is cognitive rest. This is essential for the brain to heal. Activities that requireconcentration and attention such as trying to meet academic requirements, the use of electronic devices (cornputers,tablets, video games, texting, etc.), and exposure to loud noises may worsen symptoms and delay recovery. Students mayneed their academic workload modified while they are initially recovering from a concussion. Decreasing stress on thebrain early on after a concussion may lessen symptoms and shorten the recovery time. This may involve staying homefrom school for a few days, followed by a lightened school schedule, gradually increasing to normal. Any academicmodifications should be coordinated jointly between the student's medical providers and school personnel. Noconsideration should be given to returning to physical activity until the student is fully integrated back into the classroomsetting and is syrnptom free. Rarely, a student will be diagnosed with post-concussive syndrome and lrave symptoms thatlast weeks to months. In these cases, a student may be recommended to start a non-eontact physical activity regimen, butthis will only be done under the direct supervision of a healthcare provider.

Ret_ur4 to Practice and Comnetition

The Kansas School Sports Head Injury Prevention Act provides that if an athlete suffers, or is suspected of havingsuffered, a concussion or head injury during a competition or practice, the athlete must be immediately removed from thecompetition or practice and cannot return to practice or competition until a Health Care Professional has evaluated theathlete and provided a written authorization to return to practice and competition. The KSHSAA recornmends that anathlete not return to practice or competition the same day the athlete suffers or is suspected of suffering a concussion. TheKSHSAA also recommends that an athlete's return to practice and competition should follow a graduated protocol underthe supervision of the health care prcvider (MD or DO).
