Background:

Growing awareness of concussion necessitates improved clinical evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment.
Standardized return-to-play guidelines are crucial for preventing complications and ensuring athlete safety.

Purpose of the Study:

To assess healthcare providers' awareness and comfort with concussion return-to-play guidelines.
To evaluate existing protocols against established concussion management guidelines.
To determine the impact of an educational intervention on provider knowledge and confidence.

Main Methods:

Quantitative, pretest/posttest questionnaire design.
Convenience sampling of nurse practitioners.
Educational intervention via PowerPoint presentation followed by a posttest at 8 weeks.

Main Results:

A significant portion of providers (19%) were initially unaware of graded return-to-play protocols.
The educational intervention demonstrably increased provider confidence in concussion diagnosis and danger sign assessment.
Participants reported enhanced comfort in identifying appropriate resources for concussion management.

Conclusions:

Educational interventions are effective in improving healthcare providers' knowledge and confidence regarding concussion management.
Enhanced provider confidence can lead to better patient care and adherence to return-to-play guidelines.
Standardized training is vital for ensuring consistent and effective concussion care.
