The Grip Test Helping Us Diagnose Concussions in Student Athletes
At Kanady Chiropractic Center in Anchorage, Alaska, we prioritize the health and safety of our athletes through comprehensive Concussion Management Services. A key component of our Baseline Concussion Testing is the Grip Strength Test, administered by our experienced practitioners, including Dr. Mason McCloskey.
Understanding the Grip Strength Test:
The Grip Strength Test measures an athlete's ability to recruit motor units for muscle contraction, providing insight into neurological function. This assessment is crucial, as concussions can impair motor function, and changes in grip strength may indicate such impairments. By establishing a baseline measurement, we can detect deviations post-injury, aiding in accurate diagnosis and effective management.
Why Baseline Concussion Testing Matters:
Baseline testing offers a pre-injury snapshot of an athlete's brain function, encompassing various domains:
Cognitive Function: Memory, attention, and processing speed assessments.
Motor Function: Evaluations of balance, coordination, and strength, including grip strength.
Sensory Function: Tests for visual and auditory processing.
Having this data is invaluable for:
Accurate Post-Injury Comparisons: Identifying changes in neurological function.
Personalized Rehabilitation Plans: Tailoring recovery strategies to the individual's needs.
Informed Return-to-Play Decisions: Ensuring athletes return to activity safely, minimizing the risk of further injury.
