Dr Michael Michael Takagi, Clinical Neuropsychologist and Research Fellow at Murdoch Children's Research Institute joins us to discuss concussion in Junior Sport. We have all seen the media attention that concussion in professional sport has received in recent times but where does that leave our kids? We cover what a concussion is; how coaches and parents can identify a concussion; how to see for medical treatment and treatment protocols to follow after a child has sustained a concussion.
