Concussion Injury Statistics

Typically, concussions are more frequent among youth and adolescents, often resulting from sports injuries. As youths grow from school to high school to college and perhaps professional sports teams, the risk of concussions increases with their advancement. While more than 35% of concussions among men occur as a result of sports and recreation, other causes include motor vehicle accidents, falls, assault and other mitigating circumstances.

And when it comes to concussions, there is little gender bias as almost 35% of related concussion incidents or accidents occur in girls, with almost half of these the direct result of sports and recreation.

Among the very young, bike riding and playground accidents are a leading cause of concussions.

Surprisingly few people are aware of the symptoms of a concussion, which can include nausea, issues of balance, dizziness, doubled or blurred vision, noise and light sensitivity, fatigue, seizures, confusion, depression, irritability, or “fogginess” following an accident or incident. Symptoms can be immediate, however, they may also manifest over time, particularly in instances of multiple concussions.

Each concussion injury is individual and conditions and symptoms can range from the obvious to the subtle – possibly unnoticed and undetected for a considerable period of time. As cognitive function and memory impairment are frequent, recovering or remembering details of the accident or event may not be available and witness accounts may be among the only real clues offered. Accordingly, it is imperative witness statements be recorded, along with any other possible details available including digital imagery and in the circumstance of an accident, surveillance of the surrounding scene.

In addition to the experienced, professional and dedicated concussion lawyer and legal team at Lofranco Corriero in Edmonton, we provide the best of experienced specialists extending to investigators, medical and care planners, neural professionals and financial planning experts as necessary.
