28 Case presentation 15 year-old girl is struck by the ball during a soccer match Immediately is taken off the field of play with headache and neck pain. What are you next steps?

29 CONSENSUS STATEMENTS MANAGEMENT B. Later Management The 6-step Graduated Return to Play Protocol Step 1 - physical and mental rest. No return to activity until all symptoms have resolved, and do not recur even after provocative exercise during Steps 2-5. If any Symptoms or Signs Return, Stop the Process, and Return to Step 1. Never return to play if symptoms persist or recur with exercise!

30 CONSENSUS STATEMENTS MANAGEMENT Step 2 - Light aerobic exercise, such as walking or stationary cycling. Monitor for symptoms and signs. No resistance training or weight lifting. Step 3 - Sport specific activities and training (e.g. skating). Step 4. Drills without body contact. May add light resistance training and progress to heavier weights. Step 5. Begin drills with body contact. Step 6. Game play.

31 MANAGEMENT CLINICAL SUMMARY The return to play process is gradual, and begins after a doctor has given the player clearance to return to activity. If any symptoms/signs return during this process, the player must be re-evaluated by a physician. No return to play if any symptoms or signs persist. Remember, symptoms may return later that day or the next, not necessarily when exercising! Each step should take at least one day. Therefore, the minimum time for return is one week, and double that for children
