Posttraumatic stress symptoms in recovery from concussion
Symptoms of anxiety and depression along with specific SCAT5 emotional symptoms present at the time of initial evaluation may serve to predict overall level of PTSS and increased risk for PTSS during recovery. PTSS may be another dimension of response to injury and concussion recovery, with a large percentage of individuals endorsing at least one PTSS. Clinicians can utilize brief assessments such as the SCAT5 at the time of initial clinical evaluation to identify those at risk for PTSS following concussion.
