The ImPACT Test is Immediate Post-Concussion Assessment and Cognitive Testing. It is used to help determine the athlete’s full recovery and readiness to return to her sport and activities. ImPACT evaluates multiple aspects of neurocognitive function including memory, attention, brain processing speed, reaction time, and post-concussion symptoms. ImPACT provides specific objective information regarding the severity of the injury and can help take the guesswork out of the return to play decisions as well as prevent the cumulative effects of multiple concussions.
