Baseline Testing
We provide individual and group testing for Baseline (pre-injury) Tests, and individual Post-Injury Testing on an appointment basis.
While annual Baseline Testing is required for Youth Athletes (due to their rapidly developing brains), most High School athletes will ideally Baseline Test twice:
• before their Freshman year sports season
• before their Junior year sports season |
 |
Post-Injury Testing
The neuropsychological test we use to evaluate cognitive function is called ImPACT™. Through
ImPACT™ we are able to evaluate, document and measure various brain functions, including memory, processing speed, reaction time and symptoms. With proper medical care and neuropsychological testing, ImPACT™ Certified Physicians are able to determine when an athlete has recovered from a concussion and can safely return sport. |
If an athlete has not taken the baseline test, ImPACT™ Inc. has developed norms that can be used to evaluate the recovery process of a concussed athlete. While these norms can be used to monitor recovery they do not replace the value athlete being compared to a baseline test. |
| The neurological computerized ImPACT Test™ requires special training and certification to administer and execute. Our experienced staff has been thoroughly trained and certified by the ImPACT™ organization. |
