My pledge for #braininjuryawarenessmonth is to get more sleep! One of the most common and powerful causes of decreased brain function and overall health is lack of QUALITY sleep. Cannot stress this enough.…

Thanks for highlighting this important point Dr. Giza! It’s one way in which the current paradigm of “concussion care” needs to change...the sooner the better. #athletebrainhealth @health_athlete
Summary of #ICABH definitions subcommittee: its not a "#concussion baseline, its an "annual neurological evaluation." @health_athlete @JeffKutcherMD @BigSkyATSMC #BSATSMC @AANMember @TheNewANA1 @CNS_Connect @meeryo @JoshKamins @darby23adam

PLEASE READ! https://t.co/ybixITlyRW In sum: "FDA is concerned that products that do not have FDA clearance or approval are being marketed to...parents, athletic coaches, and health care providers for the assessment, diagnosis, or management of concussion." @SptsNeuroClinic

Recently published: https://t.co/EABJOcKRch authors found peripheral inflammation in concussed patients. Wonder how much concussion symptom burden is actually from peripheral nerve inflammation and NOT directly from brain pathology. 🤔 #athletebrainhealh @SptsNeuroClinic

Another week, another awesome sport to check out while covering @SptsNeuroClinic Utah. This time, over 80 mph head first on a sled (😳!)...skeleton athletes are some of the most impressive. @USABS #athletebrainhealth at any speed.

Is turf color a risk factor for concussion? Almost certainly not. Risk factor for me developing a migraine during the game? Definitely less clear 😳 #smurfturf #prophylacticnaproxen @WMU_Football @IDPotatoBowl

Just out. Randomized controlled study shows cognitive benefits of exercise in those with cognitive impairments. I expect the inverse holds as well...stopping a physically active lifestyle hurts cognition. #athletebrainhealth @SptsNeuroClinic

Great start to the ski-snowboard season! Snowy day at the Birds of Prey Super-G at Beaver Creek, CO. Always great to hang with @SteadmanClinic’s Tom Hackett. Even better? No injuries! @SptsNeuroClinic @usskiteam

Bruce, you are one of a kind. It’s an honor to know and work with you sir! Congratulations on this well deserved honor.
It was a big Saturday for @umichfootball and for me. Thank you to @MLetterwinners for honoring me with the Bob Ufer Outstanding Service Award. #goblue

Great to hear and thankful for the opportunity to help. That's what @SptsNeuroClinic is about: comprehensive, evidence based, common sense fortified, neurological care. Every patient deserves medical expertise from medical experts, not media ones. #athletebrainhealth
@erica_steussie I traveled down a very dark path by believing what the media was telling me about concussions and CTE. It wasn’t until I saw @JeffKutcherMD in late 2013 that I finally saw the light so to speak. He helped me tremendously in not comparing my symptoms to what the media was saying.

On-ice clinic! One of my favorite things to do, and today...happily at my favorite rink of all time: Yost Ice Arena. Sometimes you need to evaluate athletes while they do what they do! @SptsNeuroClinic #athletebrainhealth
