The SHRed CONCUSSIONS STUDY

Thank you for your participation in SHRed Concussions (Surveillance in High Schools to Reduce the Risk of Concussions and their Consequences). In North America youth account for over half of more than three million concussions. Reducing the burden of concussions in youth is paramount. SHRed Concussions is a Canadian research study funded by the National Football League’s Scientific Advisory Board. There are ten Canadian Universities involved, as well as more than 30 community, government and industry partners across five provinces. The primary objective of SHRed Concussions is to develop a greater understanding of concussions and their consequences among high school athletes with a focus on Prevention, Detection, Assessment, and Treatment. Thank you for your important contribution through participation in SHRed Concussions.
