Abstract
Abstract Traumatic brain injury (TBI) in sports, encompassing sport-related concussions (SRCs) and more severe injuries, poses a significant challenge globally. This review explores the challenges of TBI in sports, focusing on mild TBIs and SRC. Over 70% of TBIs are mild, presenting diverse challenges with a lack of consensus on rehabilitation. Diagnosis is challenging, and prognosis varies. Assessment tools like Sports Concussion Assessment Tool-5th Edition aid in sideline evaluation, and management involves rest and personalised rehabilitation. Prevention involves rule enforcement, education, ongoing research exploring neuroimaging techniques and the use of novel assessment tools. Collaborative, individualised approaches are crucial for TBI rehabilitation in sports. Further research is needed to refine strategies and enhance preventive measures.
