Hits, Broken Dreams<BR>Posted: 01/25/2012 4:21 pm<BR><BR>Dr. Sanjay
Gupta<BR><BR>The more I have examined this subject, the more I have wanted
to know<BR>about how concussion may be affecting young people who play the
game.<BR>The statistics for concussion in younger players are
startling.<BR>According to the Sports Concussion Institute in Los Angeles,
each<BR>season one in ten high school football players gets a concussion,
and<BR>about 35 percent of those sustains more than one concussion.
Most<BR>players heal from these injuries, but a growing body of
evidence<BR>suggests that repeated trauma can mean long-term memory
problems,<BR>depression, and even early death - particularly when repeated
trauma<BR>is sustained in quick succession, known as "second impact
syndrome."<BR>I've met a few families that have borne these terrible
consequences.<BR>And as a father, I really want to help parents, coaches,
and young<BR>people know the risks - and perhaps the information can make
a<BR>difference to someone.<BR><BR>As a neuroscientist, I know that the
adolescent brain is still<BR>developing. It's less resilient to concussion
than the adult brain. I<BR>agree with Kevin Guskiewicz, PhD, one of the
country's leading<BR>researchers in this field that "concussion" is a word
that we've come<BR>not to associate with the seriousness of what is better
described as a<BR>brain injury. And I've met kids who just love the game so
much; they<BR>underestimate their level of
risk.<BR>------------------------------------------<BR>Vision2020 Post: Ted
