In elite GAA #Hurling, assessment of potential concussions is not meeting current GAA #concussion guidelines. We need standardized concussion assessment, training, & #education to improve the safety culture surrounding #HeadInjury.
Check out our newest paper on the assessment of potential concussions in Hurling. In the fastest field sport on earth, standardized and consistent concussion assessment must be ensured. @DrMDCusimano@DSokolRandell@EIRN_Ireland @GTBiomech

Very interesting conversation regarding some misconceptions of Hurling helmets as well as delving into the current standard of concussion care happening at Inter-county. Thank you for the great conversation Clem @kfmradio
Our study found a high incidence of potential concussive events in the #GAA Football League, with collisions often unanticipated by players. Players w/ unanticipated impacts were more likely to show signs of #concussion than players anticipating the impact

To guide player protection strategies relating to concussion in the GAA, we must first understand how these injuries occur. Check out our latest paper! @DSokolRandell. Special thanks to @drconordeasy @DrMDCusimano @gjtierney and @EIRN_Ireland

Well done to @UCC_Medicine students @MPRotundo & @DSokolRandell whose study on the incidence and assessment of Potential Concussive Events (PCEs) in GAA promises to ensure safer play at all levels of the game

Only 1 in 7 inter-county GAA players stop playing after signs of concussion.
That's according to a new UCC study that found “a deep-rooted culture that promotes toughness” in the sport could be adding to the problem.

Tune in to @NTBreakfast tomorrow morning (Oct 19) at 07:00 to hear more about our fresh research on assessment of potential concussions in Gaelic Football @DSokolRandell @drconordeasy @gjtierney @DrMDCusimano
"Cursory and remarkably brief assessments may be in the interests of managers and fans who want to see their players continue playing in the game but may be detrimental in the long run to all stakeholders, especially the athlete"
Excited to hear from our emergency physicians here in Ireland at the virtual @AssocEmergMedIE ASM 2020. Be sure to check out our latest research regarding potential concussive injuries in @ChampionsLeague. @MPRotundo@aranha_m @gjtierney @DrMDCusimano @drconordeasy
Are players receiving the proper concussion assessment they deserve? Find out in both myself and @MPRotundo latest publication within Gaelic football. Thank you to our supervisors for their continued efforts @drconordeasy @gjtierney @DrMDCusimano
