2001), 2nd (Prague 2004), and 3rd (Zurich 2008) International Consensus Conference on Concussion in Sport and is based on the deliberations at the 4th International Conference on Concussion in Sport held in Zurich, November 2012. 1–3 The new 2012 Zurich Consensus statement is designed to build on the principles outlined in the previous documents and to develop further conceptual understanding of this problem using a formal consensus-based approach. A detailed description of the consensus process is outlined at the end of this document under the ‘‘Background’’section. This document is developed for use by physicians and health care professionals who are primarily involved in the care of injured athletes, whether at the recreational, elite, or professional level.While agreement exists pertaining to principle messages conveyed within this document, the authors acknowledge that the science of concussion is evolving, and therefore, management and RTP decisions remain in the realm of clinical judgment on an individualized basis. Readers are encouraged to copy and distribute freely the Zurich Consensus document, the Pocket Concussion Recognition Tool (CRT), the Sports Concussion Assessment Tool version 3 (SCAT3), and the Child SCAT3 card (Appendix), and none is subject to any restriction, provided it is not altered in any way or converted to a digital format. The authors request that the document and the accompanying tools be distributed in their full and complete format.
