LAFAYETTE COLLEGE SPORTS MEDICINE CONCUSSION PROTOCOL

SECTION A.
Policy Statement
This document outlines guidelines to aid in the management of concussions and the safe return-to-play
for athletes at Lafayette College. This is a multifaceted approach to concussion management. The information
included in this protocol and the tools referenced are to be taken into consideration on an individual case-by
case basis. Modifications may be implemented as deemed appropriate by Lafayette College sports medicine
staff.
Purpose To develop a concussion management procedure in accordance with NCAA bylaw 3.2.4.17 (Concussion
Management Plan) that creates a consistent and objective method for the recognition, evaluation, and
management of student-athletes who have sustained a concussion, in keeping with the National Athletic
Trainers’ Association Position Statement on Management of Sport-Related Concussion (Journal of Athletic
Training 2004;39(3): 280-297.) Specifically, to:
a. Ensure proper diagnosis and management of concussions;
b. Monitor student-athletes’ recovery;
c. Prevent short and long term consequences of concussive injury.
SECTION B.
Concussion Education Plan
Concussion education will be provided annually to educate what a concussion is, how it can be
prevented, and what signs and symptoms are consistent of a concussion. Coaches, team physicians, athletic
trainers, and directors of athletics will be provided the NCAA’s Concussion Fact Sheet (See Supplement 1)
and/or applicable educational information on concussion. After reviewing the material provided, individuals
will sign a form of acknowledgement (See Supplement 2). It is required that every varsity athlete completes
annual Concussion Management Education, including signed documentation.
Pre-Participation Exam and Baseline Testing Every varsity athlete is required to have a pre-participation exam by a physician or mid-level provider
through the Bailey Health Center. The provider will review the medical history with the student-athlete and
conduct an exam. Risk factors/modifiers for concussion, including previous concussions, migraine headaches,
ADHD, depression/anxiety will be noted on the medical history form. Additional consultation and testing is at
the discretion of the team physician to determine pre-participation clearance.
Every first year (or transfer) student-athlete that participates in a sport will receive baseline assessment
for concussion by the staff athletic trainers prior to their initial pre-participation exam at Bailey Health Center
and prior to the start of their respective sport:
1.) Computerized neurocognitive exam – ImPACT testing
2.) Modified SCAT2 with Balance Error Scoring System (BESS)
3.) King-Devick Test (K-D)
(See Supplement 3 & 4).
LAFAYETTE COLLEGE SPORTS MEDICINE CONCUSSION PROTOCOL

Results and documentation regarding the completion of the above baseline exams are stored and tracked
by the athletic trainers.
Every varsity athlete will complete the Concussion Management Plan form during annual pre-
participation screenings (See Supplement 5).
(See Supplement 6 for the Flow Chart diagraming the concussion process.)
SECTION C.
Initial Evaluation and Care The initial assessment will include an evaluation for cervical spine injury, level of consciousness, skull
fracture, and intracranial bleed. A student-athlete with significant altered mental status, suspected spine injury
suspected skull fracture, or suspected intracranial bleed will be immobilized and transported to St. Luke’s
Trauma Center, Bethlehem, PA. (See Supplement 7 for Cervical Spine Injury Protocol).
Any student-athletes who exhibit signs, symptoms, or behaviors consistent with a concussion shall be
removed from practice/competition immediately and evaluated by a staff athletic trainer. Sideline evaluation
consists of SCAT2, BESS, and King-Devick testing.
Any student-athlete diagnosed with a concussion shall be excluded from all athletic activity for the
remainder of that day. If no staff athletic trainer is present (i.e. away competitions) host site medical personnel
should be contacted for evaluation. Coaches should contact their Lafayette Staff Athletic Trainer to alert them
to the student-athlete’s condition and facilitate follow-up with team physicians.
Symptomatic student-athletes should be given a “Head Injury Info Take Home Sheet” and be monitored
by a responsible party (See Supplement 8). Symptomatic student-athletes should also be verbally informed of
concerning signs and symptoms, and the interaction of drugs and alcohol.
In the event where symptoms worsen significantly, where as any of the following occur, Public Safety
should be contacted immediately at extension 4444 from an on campus landline, or dial 911 when off campus.
(See Supplement 9 for concise On Campus Emergency Action Plans. Full descriptions of
Athletics’ Emergency Action Plans are found in each of the three athletic training facilities).
Vomiting more than twice
Severe headache that won’t ease up or go away, even after a dose of acetaminophen (Tylenol)

SECTION D.
Follow Up & Return to Play The follow up and return to play protocol is as follows.
1. Every student-athlete that has sustained a concussion or concussive symptoms must be re-evaluated by a
healthcare professional within 24 hours. The symptom checklist must be documented.
2. Every student-athlete that has sustained a concussion or concussive symptoms must be evaluated by the
Team Physician or designee at Bailey Health Center within 48 hours. Said healthcare professional must
communicate patient symptom presentation to the Team Physician in the event of falling outside
physician availability.
3. The student-athlete can begin neurological testing for return to play (SCAT2, ImPACT, K-D) no sooner
than 24 hours asymptomatic. A follow-up appointment with the physician at Bailey Health Center is to
be made.
4. A follow up appointment with the team physician is to occur no less than once a week for the duration of
the symptoms. During these appointments, best management options and additional diagnoses for
prolonged recovery will be considered to treat post-concussion syndrome, sleep dysfunction, headache
disorders, behavioral disorders, ocular/vestibular issues, as well as others.
5. The Team Physician must clear the student-athlete to begin return to play progressions.
6. A graduated exertional testing requires:
Phase 1: Low Exertion: Twenty minutes of stationary exercise bike with heart rate less than 70%
of max; followed by cool down. (Heart rate is calculated as 220 minus Age, times .70)
Phase 2: High Exertion: Twenty minutes of running. Heart rate is greater than 70% of max;
followed by cool down.
Phase 3: High Exertion: Squats, push-ups, sit-ups, sprinting and resistance training. No contact.
Phase 4: Sport Specific Drills / Non-Contact Practice
Phase 5: Full participation practice with contact following at competition tempo. The
supervising healthcare provider can determine content of this activity in the event of
not having a full team activity.
The phases are not to be performed all on the same day, and no more than two steps complete on
any given day. If at any point during the process the athlete becomes symptomatic, no further activity is
allowed and the athlete will be re-evaluated.
Final return to play decisions will be made solely by the Lafayette College Team Physician in
conjunction with the Sports Medicine staff, based upon the individual athlete and his/her rate of
recovery. The steps in this functional progression may be modified as needed by the Team Physician on
a case-by-case position.

SECTION E.
Return-to-learn The athlete is encouraged to limit cognitive activities during the period of recovery. Coordination of
cognitive recovery and return-to-learn will be administered by the Lafayette College Team Physician.
Professors will be notified by the Dean of the College, via the Lafayette College Team Physician, that a student
has been diagnosed with a concussion and may require additional time to complete assignments.
Within the return-to-learn process, the Lafayette College Team Physician’s role is defined, but not
limited to:
1. Restriction of academic activity the same day as the injury.
2. Managing a multi-disciplinary team that includes Lafayette Sports Medicine staff,
psychologist/counselor(s), sports psychologists, neuropsychologists, vestibular/ocular therapists, faculty-
athletic representatives, academic advisors, instructors, administrators, Disability Services, coaches and
other additional resources, for a duration at the Lafayette College Team Physician’s discretion.
3. Compliance with the ADA Amendments Act of 2008.
4. Individualizing a patient-centered plan for activities of daily living, including off-campus
accommodations for a duration, at the Lafayette College Team Physician’s discretion.
5. Scheduling regular appointments for follow-up throughout return-to-learn process to monitor symptoms
with academic challenges.
SECTION F.
Prolonged Recovery Student-Athletes with prolonged recovery will be managed by the Lafayette College Team Physician in
order to consider additional diagnosis and other best management options. Student-Athletes not progressing
within a normal and ordinary timeframe or individuals struggling with progressions beyond two weeks post-
injury will be referred for additional treatment.
Referral options are dependent on symptoms and patient history. Referral options include, but are not
limited to: Good Shepherd Rehabilitation Hospital, Lafayette Counseling Services, Mind of the Athlete,
behavioral specialists, and neuro-specialists.
SECTION G.
Head Trauma Exposure Management Plan Reducing exposure begins through the education of all participants in athletics, including coaches,
athletic staff and medical staff, and appropriate into practice. Head trauma exposure is twofold; interactive
annual educational sessions, and symptom development and recognition.
Through annual teaching sessions, concussion etiology and strategies to minimize risk exposure are to
be discussed. This includes risk exposure and development of topics such as ‘head’s up’ tackling and pre-
planning for less contact practices.
Annual education will also include symptom and injury education with awareness to prevent further
injury / secondary concussion syndrome.
All medical personnel are responsible for presenting new evidence-based concussion data and its
practical application to the setting.

Supplement 8. HEAD INJURY INFORMATION
TAKE HOME SHEET
*PLEASE GIVE THIS SHEET TO THE ADULT WHO WILL BE STAYING WITH YOU You have just suffered a head injury that has resulted in a concussion. You may return to your home under supervision of a responsible adult because it appears at this time that your concussion has stabilized. It is possible that your head injury may become progressively worse in the next 24 hours. There are several danger signals that indicate your concussion needs IMMEDIATE medical attention. These signals include the following:
-Vomiting more than twice -Severe headache that won’t ease up or go away, even after a dose of acetaminophen (Tylenol) -Confusion -Restlessness or irritability -Pupils of different sizes -Convulsions or seizures -Trouble using arms or legs -Temperature above 100.5 F, with or without stiffness of the neck -Garbled speech -Bleeding from the nose or ears -Unusual sleepiness or decreasing alertness
If ANY of these signals occur, the responsible adult who is monitoring you must contact public safety IMMEDIATELY at
x4444 and tell them you need an ambulance. They will transport you to Easton hospital, and security will contact Dr.
Goldstein.
In the next twenty hour hours, you must:
1) Take ONLY acetaminophen (Tylenol) as directed on the bottle for pain with food; do not overdose or
take ANY other medication unless directed to do so by a physician
2) Call the health center to set up an appointment with Dr. Goldstein within 48 hours of sustaining the
concussion. Dr. Goldstein will have final clearance on return to play.
