BACKGROUND
The present study aims to report traumatic brain injury (TBI) among soccer players in the 2017 Brazilian Soccer Championship and discuss the protocols for concussion evaluation.
MATERIALS &
METHODS
This is an observational study utilizing video analysis of 380 matches. TBI was considered as any event in which one or more soccer player(s) had a head trauma. For potential concussion diagnosis, we analyzed players with one of the following signs: slowness to get up, disorientation, motor incoordination, loss of consciousness, head clutching and impact seizure.
RESULTS
There were 374 TBIs in total. The average time for medical assessment was 1'35". 13 players had concussion with an average time of 3'19″ for medical evaluation. Four players were replaced after having a concussion.
CONCLUSION
There is a gap between concussion protocols and medical practices in Brazilian elite soccer. Further discussion about soccer replacement rules are imperative.
