ACTIVITY REPORT Heads Up: Addressing Concussions Among Kids and Teens: On and Off the Playing FieldHeads Up Initiatives—An OverviewHeads Up is a series of educational programs,developed by the Centers for Disease Controland Prevention (CDC), that all have a commongoal: to help protect people of all ages, especiallychildren and teens, from concussions and theirpotentially devastating effects.For nearly 10 years, the Heads Up initiative has provided materials to keyaudiences who play a critical role in helping keep children and teens safefrom concussions. Initially, Heads Up materials addressed health careprofessionals and their important role in diagnosing and managingconcussions. More recent Heads Up initiatives focus on sports programsand schools as key places to share messages that will help improvetraumatic brain injury (TBI) and concussion prevention, recognition, andresponse among children and teens.Parents, coaches, school nurses, teachers, and other schoolprofessionals are frequently the first people in a position to recognizeand respond to concussion symptoms, and thereby potentially helpprevent long-term problems. They are also well-positioned to helpeducate others about concussions and how to respond.8
For nearly 10 years, the Heads Up initiative has providedmaterials to key audiences who play a critical role in helpingkeep children and teens safe from concussions.
?noissucnoCasItahWA concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury (TBI) caused by abump, blow, or jolt to the head—or by a hit to the body—that causesthe head and brain to move rapidly back and forth. This suddenmovement can make the brain bounce around or twist in the skull,stretching and damaging the brain cells and creating chemical changesin the brain. Some researchers believe that children may be morevulnerable to the chemical and metabolic changes that occur in thebrain as a result of a concussion.Why Is It a Special Health Concernfor Children and Teens?Falls account for half of all TBIs among children aged 0-to-14years and, each year, kids and teens aged 5-18 years account foran estimated 65% of emergency department visits for sports andrecreation-related TBIs, including concussions.1,2Concussions can have a serious effect on a young, developing brain,causing short- and long-term problems affecting a child’s thinking,language, learning, behavior, and/or emotions. While most kidsand teens with a concussion recover quickly and fully, some willhave symptoms that last for days, or even weeks. A more seriousconcussion can last for months or longer.1 Faul M, Xu L, Wald MM, Coronado VG. Traumatic brain injury in the United States: emergency department visits,hospitalizations, and deaths. Atlanta (GA): Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, National Center for InjuryPrevention and Control; 2010.2 Gilchrist J, Thomas KE, Wald M, Langlois J. Nonfatal traumatic brain injuries from sports and recreation activities—United States, 2001-2005. Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) July 27, 2007; 56(29):733-37.10
The success of Heads Up: Concussion in High School Sports led tothe development of a second sports-related project, Heads Up:Concussion in Youth Sports, with similar objectives but a differenttarget audience.Many coaches in youth sports programs are volunteers—eitherparents or other interested people—who may have minimal or notraining in coaching and safety and are generally juggling manyother commitments.31Yet, these youth sports coaches are also on the front line inthe effort to identify and respond to concussions, and they canplay an important role in sharing this information with theparents of young athletes and with the athletes themselves. TheHeads Up: Concussion in Youth Sports initiative has experiencedgreat success and has helped create a national conversationabout this injury in training rooms and homes, and on sidelinesand benches nationwide. The reach of this initiative is largelyattributed to the participating organizations that have helped putthis information in the hands of coaches, parents, and athletes.ACTIVITY REPORT Heads Up: Addressing Concussions Among Kids and Teens: On and Off the Playing FieldDeveloped in 2005, Heads Up: Concussion in High School Sportswas the first education and awareness-building effort focusingon children and youth participating in sports and recreationalactivities. Designed for high school athletic coaches, this programaims to 1) educate coaches about concussions and the role thatcoaches can play both to help prevent them and to limit theireffects when they occur, and 2) prepare those coaches to educateathletes and their parents about these same issues.3 Wiersma LD, Sherman CP. Volunteer youth sports coaches’ perspectives of coachingeducation/certification and parental codes of conduct. Res Q Exerc and Sport 2005;76(3):324-38.11
ACTIVITY REPORT Heads Up: Addressing Concussions Among Kids and Teens: On and Off the Playing FieldRecognizing that concussions don’t just affect students on theplaying field, in 2010 CDC created Heads Up to Schools: KnowYour Concussion ABCs for school nurses, teachers, principals, andother school professionals who work with students ages 5-18(grades K-12) during the school day. Heads Up to Schools: KnowYour Concussion ABCs focuses on prevention and recognition ofconcussion in school settings.Because teachers and other school professionals see theirstudents regularly, they are often among the first to recognizethat a student may be experiencing concussion symptoms. Thus,it is important to educate school professionals about the signsand symptoms of concussion—and the need for cognitive restamong students who are recovering from a concussion—so thatthey can help students return to school and, in partnership withthe student’s parent(s) and health care professional, assist withproper management of a concussion.The reach of this initiative is largely attributed to the participatingorganizations that have helped put this information in the hands ofcoaches, parents, and athletes.12
CDC has developed a set of materials designed to meet theeducational objectives of each of these Heads Up audiences—health care professionals, high school coaches, youth sportscoaches and program administrators, school nurses, teachers,and other school professionals—as well as tools for thoseaudiences to use in reaching secondary audiences such asathletes/students and parents.Representatives from each audience provided feedback to ensurethat the content was relevant and actionable, and that the designand format were appealing and usable. Other research methodsused include literature reviews, interviews with experts, focusgroups, and individual in-depth interviews.ACTIVITY REPOR T Heads Up: Addressing Concussions Among Kids and Teens: On and Off the Playing FieldSupporting Materialsand Resources13

Can change the way your brain normally works. Can occur during practices or games in any sportor recreational activity. Can happen even if you haven’t been knocked out. Can be serious even if you’ve just been “dinged”or “had your bell rung.”All concussions are serious. A concussion can affectyour ability to do schoolwork and other activities (suchas playing video games, working on a computer,studying, driving, or exercising). Most people with aconcussion get better, but it is important to give yourbrain time to heal. Tell your coaches and your parents. Never ignore abump or blow to the head even if you feel fine. Also,tell your coach right away if you think you have aconcussion or if one of your teammates might have aconcussion. Get a medical check-up. A doctor or other healthcare professional can tell if you have a concussionand when it is OK to return to play. Give yourself time to get better. If you have aconcussion, your brain needs time to heal. While yourbrain is still healing, you are much more likely to haveanother concussion. Repeat concussions can increasethe time it takes for you to recover and may causemore damage to your brain.
