ImPACT Concussion Testing
Gonzaga College High School uses the ImPACT Concussion Test to facilitate a thorough assessment of traumatic brain injury. This computerized test allows the athletic training and medical staff to effectively evaluate athletes against their own baseline score. This comparison allows for the most accurate assessment of function and injury, and is used to inform proper decisions related to athlete safety, return-to-play criteria, and referral for additional medical evaluation and treatment.
