In this month's episode of Service Course, Tom Whalley and Lizzy Banks tackle the issue of concussion recognition head on. Tom and Lizzy investigate the technologies already out there that could transform concussion recognition in both professional and amateur cycling. Lizzy speaks to HIT Recognition founder, Euan Bowen about their device which can be placed on the back of a helmet and which provides instant g-force data to assess the impact when a rider sustains a hit to the head. Dr David Stevens of Neuroflex tells us about their virtual reality headset that is already transforming concussion recognition pitchside in rugby. Could this have the potential to be a fast, accurate and independent method of assessing vestibular and ocular motor changes due to concussion roadside in cycling? Lizzy speaks to physiotherapist and coach, Tom Fallon, who is providing a concussion education program to the Cycling Ireland junior programme and has also performed research on athlete attitudes to concussion.
