Potential Concussion Events of a Leading Team in the Spanish Male Professional Soccer League: Incidence, Refereeing Actions, Medical Consequences and Return-to-Play

These results are consistent with previous studies in nearby countries and reveal a high incidence and high likelihood of repeated PCEs, with limited impact on refereeing decisions, minimal medical intervention, and short return-to-play periods. Given the potential neurological risks of concussions, greater awareness is needed among professionals, medical teams, the public, and authorities.

Abstract

These results are consistent with previous studies in nearby countries and reveal a high incidence and high likelihood of repeated PCEs, with limited impact on refereeing decisions, minimal medical intervention, and short return-to-play periods. Given the potential neurological risks of concussions, greater awareness is needed among professionals, medical teams, the public, and authorities.
