(continued from page 10) The next date for ImPACT baseline testing is Tuesday, Aug. 31 at 5 and 6:30 p.m. Testing will be conducted in the computer classroom located on the third floor of Valley’s Kraft Center at 15 Essex Road, Paramus. To register for a baseline test or for information about ImPACT Concussion Management, call (201) 447-8133. A concussion is a brain injury. Concussions are most commonly caused by a bump or blow to the head, but can also be caused by a sudden deceleration or acceleration of the head. In either scenario, the brain, suspended inside the skull and surrounded by fluid, continues to travel with momentum until it “bangs” up against the skull – causing a brain bruising injury – or concussion. What may seem to be a mild bump or blow to the head can be serious. An athlete who suffers a concussion can be at risk for a condition known as Second Impact Syndrome if he or she returns to sports before full recovery. This syndrome is a life-threatening condition in which a second concussion occurs before a first concussion has properly healed, causing rapid and severe brain swelling. Second Impact Syndrome can result from even a very mild concussion that occurs days or weeks after the initial concussion. “Second Impact Syndrome can be prevented,” Tomaszewski said. “Don’t allow an athlete to return to sports after a concussion until their symptoms have completely resolved and they have been cleared by a competent medical professional.”
