Amsterdam Concussion Meeting

Gavin Davis is a scientific committee member and an integral member of the 6th International Consensus Meeting on Concussion in Sport in Amsterdam, October 2022.
This meeting is the leading international scientific meeting on concussion in sport, and it delivers recommendations and tools for practitioners around the world to use in managing sports concussion.
The summary of the meeting, the Amsterdam Consensus Statement, reflects the current state of knowledge intended to inform clinical practice. More detailed analysis is provided in the accompanying 10 Systematic Reviews and the Methodology paper, all published in the BJSM in June 2023.



New tools were also developed for health care practitioners, including the SCAT6, Child SCAT6, SCOAT6 and Child SCOAT6.
The CRT6 (Concussion Recognition Tool 6) has been developed for use by all community members, without any requirement for medical experience, to assist with early recognition of concussion in adults, adolescents and children.
