Knowledge and attitudes of concussion and chronic traumatic encephalopathy amongst a sample of non-professional rugby players

Non-professional rugby players are generally knowledgeable about concussion. However, some gaps in their knowledge relating to coma and the course of symptoms of concussion were identified. Unsafe attitudes, particularly among school players, need to be addressed. Non-professional rugby players are interested in further education about CTE.

Abstract

Non-professional rugby players are generally knowledgeable about concussion. However, some gaps in their knowledge relating to coma and the course of symptoms of concussion were identified. Unsafe attitudes, particularly among school players, need to be addressed. Non-professional rugby players are interested in further education about CTE.
