Multifaceted concussion assessment battery: sensitivity at the expense of specificity?
The outcomes of this study support the premise that concussion must be evaluated using a comprehensive clinical examination including a variety of assessments to evaluate each clinical domain. Clinicians need to recognize that the multifaceted assessment battery has high sensitivity, but the overall psychometrics do not exceed the threshold for group discrimination and caution must be used in their interpretation.
