When they applied standard concussion tests to Long Covid patients, researchers noticed the same tell-tale issues. One was problems with eye-tracking movements, assessed via the King-Devick test, which measures the ability to scan numbers.

"Quick sideline tests exist. My son’s league is committed to protecting its players. Each team has a trained safety officer with access to the sideline King-Devick test for which a baseline is established for each player at the beginning of the season."

"When you combine SCAT6, including the neuropsychometric screen and gait testing, w/ King-Devick, you get pretty close to 100% sensitivity along with very good specificity as well." Amaal Starling, MD FAAN Assoc. Prof. of Neurology, Mayo Clinic Scottsdale

What is the relationship between visual dysfunction during exercise & the development of persistent post-concussion symptoms (PPCS)? In this study participants who showed visual dysfunction following exercise were more likely to develop PPCS (71% vs 34%)

Mayo crew spent Saturday morning performing preseason concussion testing on 9-13 year old athletes. Baseline scores on King-Devick are used for future sideline concussion screening. Improving immediate recognition = better outcomes.

Effective detection & tracking of #LongCOVID continues to evade the medical community despite COVIDs arrival almost 3 years ago. King-Devick is easy to implement at home & may be effective in tracking patient progress in the context of Long COVID treatment https://t.co/qGvye9Gnj5

New research from Bridget Whelan and fellow @CareConsortium investigators assessed whether the King - Devick is useful as a prognostic test for prolonged concussion symptoms. #concussion @_JSAMS

In August, 40 colleagues and I sent a letter asking the NIH NINDS to update their official statements to reflect the clear evidence that CTE is caused by repeated hits to the head

Today, they agreed:

With so many field side solutions that are more direct and objective measures of brain function like @oculogica, @kingdevicktest and @wavimedical - to name just a few - there’s no excuse for this negligent treatment.
