INTRODUCTION: Downhill mountain biking (DHI) is a form of cycling and does not currently have a specific sports-related concussion (SRC) assessment.
OBJECTIVE: To review the extent, range and nature of research investigating SRC in DMB, provide a summary of key literature findings relating to its identification and management, and then develop a SRC protocol specific to DMB.
DESIGN: Scoping review as per recognised methods.
SETTING: Literature-based. The following databases were searched: MEDLINE, EMBASE, Scopus and Web of Science, with no restrictions on date. Results were limited to the English language.
PARTICIPANTS: Six articles were included in the review from 64 identified articles. The article had to specifically include an analysis of adult downhill riders for inclusion.
OUTCOME MEASURES: Study type, study group (amateur/professional), concussion incidence, concussion assessment and recommendations.
MAIN RESULTS: Concussion incidence was identified as between 5-23%. No study outlined a trackside assessment of cyclists or a protocol for return to play where SRC was identified. Several authors identified that riders often continued to participate despite the presence of a concussion. No sport-specific SRC assessment was determined for DHI, and a SRC assessment was therefore developed.
CONCLUSIONS: This review illustrates the lack of studies and formal protocol in SRC assessment for DHI. In light of this, we propose a three-stage framework specific to the sport to best identify a concussion and act where appropriate while minimising disruption to competition. This framework involves assessing the cyclist on the 'sideline', a second assessment post-event in the medical room and a third assessment the following day. A SRC consensus meeting specific for DHI is suggested with an identified need for updated guidance from UCI, requiring possible rule changes for the sport.
