Increased susceptibility to concussions and longer recovery times among high school athletes compared with older (1) make youths playing a sport or being physically active an area of concern.

Estimates assessed from emergency departments miss treated outside hospitals, those generated using athletic trainer reports sustained...

Current methods of traumatic brain injury (TBI) morbidity surveillance in the United States have primarily relied on hospital-based data sets.
