Athletes with a #concussion had greater exposure to head impacts on either the day of injury or in the season leading up to the injury compared to peers matched on the same team and playing the same position. https://t.co/PBgWuN4EMP https://t.co/5oYscWeNM4

This study shows that the relationship between repetitive head impacts and #concussion is more complex than we had ever imagined. Scientific advances will demand large prospective studies on active athletes rather than cherry-picking data from retirees. h

Thank you, Dr. Stemper, for leading this important research.

Important work from the CARE consortium. Actual biomechanics of impact do little to predict concussion but previous exposure to head impact is critically important. https://t.co/E45kdOoqlE #concussion

"Another possible limitation of the current analysis is that undiagnosed concussions may have occurred, which were not accounted for in this dataset." https://t.co/eRCMOc5dxd

"These findings highlight a possible need to re-think the way that head impact biomechanics may be used to assist in the identification of concussions in contact sport athletes." @NFLObjectors how much are parents paying for sensors right now? https://t.co

"over half of all concussions in this study (n = 28) were associated w/head impacts that had biomechanics indicative of less than a 1% risk of injury according to a previously defined relationship,45 while the highest risk was 80%" https://t.co/eRCMOc5dx

"Concussion onset occurred following head impacts that had associated injury risks as low as 0.02%, indicating that concussion from a head impact of that severity would only be expected twice out of every 10,000 head impacts." https://t.co/eRCMOc5dxd

"While the single impact mechanism likely contributed to concussion in some cases, other concussions were clearly the result of factors other than the head impact sustained immediately prior to injury." https://t.co/eRCMOc5dxd

@NFLObjectors Recorded head impacts that did not match the video were shown to occur to the lateral side of the head (right or left) on video and were recorded as occurring to the back of the head in the HIT System. https://t.co/eRCMOc5dxd

News Flash: Cumulative subconcussions (asymptomatic brain injuries) predispose players to concussion (symptomatic brain injury). A great way to prevent concussions is to play less football, and to reduce the amount of real football (i.e. hitting) at foo

"Concussions were sustained by athletes in all primary playing position categories. Offensive linemen (n = 9), defensive backs (n = 9), and linebackers (n = 9) were most affected." https://t.co/eRCMOc5dxd

"Interestingly, a majority of concussions occurred early in the season." https://t.co/eRCMOc5dxd

"Fifty athletes sustained concussion while wearing the HIT System. Nine concussions occurred during the 2015 calendar year, 17 concussions during the 2016 calendar year, and 24 concussions during the 2017 calendar year." https://t.co/eRCMOc5dxd

@bachyns I find these totals amazing, that's a lot of head impacts -> "A total of 424,059 head impacts were recorded across 484 unique dates and 34,267 athlete exposures." https://t.co/eRCMOc5dxd

“While these trends require further validation, the clinical implication of these findings supports the contemporary trend of limiting head impact exposure for college football athletes during practice activities.” https://t.co/2JsivolSfo

@NFLObjectors Ever wonder what the data Riddell has accumulated shows? How much data are they currently getting from high schools & youth leagues? "Data were then stored in the Riddell cloud storage." https://t.co/eRCMOc5dxd

"Findings from studies referenced above imply that repetitive head impacts likely decrease biomechanical tolerance for concussion resulting in the athlete being more susceptible to injury from lower magnitude impacts." https://t.co/eRCMOc5dxd

@NFLObjectors Rowson and Duma recorded approximately 63,000 head impacts using the HIT System with only 37 diagnosed concussions https://t.co/eRCMOc5dxd
