SUMMARY:Concussion Management in General Practice - Online Webinar
DESCRIPTION:In primary healthcare\, concussion can present in a number of different ways. Although widely considered as a sports injury\, only 20% of concussion cases are sports related. The majority of concussions stem from a direct blow to the head\, falls\, road traffic incidents and physical assault cases including intimate partner violence. Primary care plays an important role in the initial management of concussion injuries and the prevention of adverse outcomes. This webinar will provide recent evidence-based information on concussion management to reduce complications\, long term effects and inappropriate referrals. Experts in the field will also share local referral pathways available in Western Australia and the latest resources on the topic. \nPresenters: \n\nDr Gill Cowen MBBS MA(Oxon) FRACGP MSportMed\, Senior Lecturer (T&R) Curtin Medical School\nDianne Mitchell\, SHIU Case Coordinator\nErika Lori\, SHIU Senior Physiotherapist\nDr Rachael Mumme\, SHIU Clinical Neuropsychologist\n\nClick here to register
