What is ImPACT Testing?

ImPACT Testing is:

A computerized exam that aids in the diagnosis and severity of concussions
An exam that is given to athletes prior to beginning a contact sport or competition.
A test that tracks memory, reaction time and processing speed
A means of establishing a " baseline "
A tool to manage concussions
The best solution to determining when it is safe to return to play.
An aid to preventing brain damage that can occur with multiple concussions

ImPACT is a 25 minute neurocognitive test battery that has been scientifically validated to measure the effects of sports -related concussion. In the pre-season, each athlete is given a BASELINE TEST. If a concussion is suspected during the season, a follow-up test is administered to see if the results have changed from the baseline. Conducting baseline and post-injury neurocognitive testing using ImPACT help's to objectively evaluate an athlete's cognitive status to prevent cumulative effects of concussion.
