Two major French Rugby clubs in the Top 14 are currently trusting us to demonstrate the usefulness of digital assessment of players exposed to concussions and repeated mild traumatic brain injuries.
During the first couple ou months collaborating with Racing 92, we had the opportunity to get some insightful data about our tools in concussion assessment.
All the players had a pre season assessment with Synapse and Vision. Then in case of a concussion occurred, the digital assessments were repeated at 3 days (HIA3) then weekly until return to play was decided.
After a concussion, we observed that approximately half of the players presented a significant worsening of the neurological evaluation at 72 hours in comparison to baseline. Abnormalities were observed both on video oculography and also on the multidimensional neurological assessment in Synapse.
