Concussion testing
ImPACT Baseline
Overview
ImPACT Baseline testing is a computerized neurocognitive assessment used to establish a pre-injury baseline of cognitive functions such as reaction time, memory, and brain processing speed. In the event of a concussion, post-injury ImPACT testing allows doctors to compare results, aiding in diagnosis and determining treatment strategies. This scientifically validated tool provides critical data for concussion management.
