Brittani Freund, Gretchen Mohney
PMID 40756797WHAT IT FOUND
This paper offers expert recommendations for adapting return-to-sport strategies for elite figure skaters after concussion.
It is a clinical commentary, not a study, so it reports no evidence that these specific adaptations improve recovery outcomes.
What this paper is
This is a clinical commentary describing how to adapt return-to-sport strategies for elite figure skaters following a concussion. It provides expert recommendations and theoretical frameworks but reports no patient data, methods, or outcomes. There are no findings to act on.
The easy way to misread this
Do not treat the proposed stepwise progression and dual-task exercises as tested interventions. The authors state these are adaptations from current evidence and clinical practice, not prescriptive guidelines proven to work in this population.
