Concussion management application for amateur sports.

Concussion management has become one of the most popular topics in sports medicine. Significant resources are being invested in developing protocols for professional sport associations such as the NFL and FIFA. These protocols are often expensive and require substantial resources to implement. The problem, however, runs much deeper than just professional sports. Currently there exists little infrastructure to effectively manage concussion in amateur settings such as high school, club and university sport. A more holistic approach is required to ensure that the same standard of concussion management is being implemented across the board, regardless of the available medical and financial resources. An application was developed that will allow for easily accessible baseline testing and access to a player's concussion history from anywhere in the world. The application will be used to monitor players from the day they start playing sport until they potentially become professional sport players.
