Knowledge of paediatric concussion among front-line primary care providers.
To assess the knowledge of paediatric concussion diagnosis and management among front-line primary care providers. ⋯ Considerable gaps in knowledge exist in front-line primary care providers with inadequate application of graduated return to play and return to learn following concussion, as demonstrated by the present broad population-based survey. Consistent application of best evidence-based management using comprehensive guidelines may help to reduce the impact of concussion and persistent postconcussive problems in children and adolescents.
