There are mounting concerns surrounding the risk of neurodegenerative diseases and
complications associated with concussion incidence and repetitive head acceleration events …

Purpose To identify and evaluate the evidence that examines subconcussive impacts in
sport-specific settings, and address two objectives: a) to determine how 'subconcussion'is …

Chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) is a neurodegenerative tauopathy associated with
repetitive head impacts (RHI), but the components of RHI exposure underlying this …

Measuring head impacts in sports can further our understanding of brain injury
biomechanics and, hopefully, advance concussion diagnostics and prevention. Although …

There is increasing societal concern about the long-term effects of repeated impacts from
soccer heading, but there is little information about ways to reduce head impact severity. The …

Context: Heading, an integral component of soccer, exposes athletes to a large number of
head impacts over a career. The literature has begun to indicate that cumulative exposure …

Background The number and magnitude of head impacts have been assessed in-vivo using
inertial sensors to characterise the exposure in various sports and to help understand their …

Head acceleration events (HAEs) are acceleration responses of the head following external
short-duration collisions. The potential risk of brain injury from a single high-magnitude HAE …

Long term neurological impairments due to repetitive head trauma are a growing concern for
collision sport athletes. American Football has the highest rate of reported concussions …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between repetitive
head impacts (RHI) and clinical concussion assessments across a season among collegiate …
