Lakers coach Ham said not long ago that Davis did not trigger the concussion protection agreement, and it is likely that he can play the G6 series. How does NBA’s concussion protection agreement work? If Davis triggers the concussion protection agreement, what steps does Davis need to take to return to the arena? The following are the answers to these questions: How does NBA’s concussion protection agreement work? According to NBA concussion regulations this season, the concussion protection agreement is generally divided into the following parts: 1. Concussion Assessment: if a player is suspected of having a concussion or showing signs and symptoms of a concussion, the team doctor or trainer will prohibit the player from continuing the game and in “quiet, the players are evaluated in a non-interference environment. In addition, before the player returns to the game, “the doctor (or trainer) in charge of the evaluation needs to review the video” is evaluated again. 2. A series of evaluation and monitoring processes: If the player is not diagnosed as concussion after concussion evaluation, the team’s medical staff will continue to monitor the player. The player will conduct at least one concussion assessment at the beginning of the next match or training match, or 24 hours after the first concussion assessment, depending on the time sequence. If the player has any subsequent signs or symptoms of concussion during the period, he will immediately withdraw from the competition and training match and conduct another concussion assessment. 3. No competition: if a player is diagnosed with concussion, he cannot return to the game for at least 48 hours, and the diagnosis time is also included until he passes the evaluation process of returning to the game. 4. Behavior limitation and promotion of rehabilitation: players diagnosed with concussion need to limit their consumption of physical strength and cognitive ability under the guidance of team medical staff. After the player is injured, after a period of rest (usually 24-48 hours), he can slowly participate in some more intense activities under the guidance of the team doctor, “As long as the amount of exercise does not cause or worsen the symptoms of players”. The regulation also includes that concussion players should “consider restricting their use of electronic game equipment, receive necessary sex education from team medical personnel on proper sleep, nutrition supplement and water, and restrict their large contact with people, until the team’s medical staff allowed him to do so”, including giving up the post-match and other media interviews. 5. Collaborative care: Regardless of the diagnosis result, the doctor must finally confirm whether the player suffers from concussion and participate in the subsequent care plan. The medical staff of the team must inform the person in charge of the NBA concussion agreement within 24 hours after the injury, whether the evaluation process and evaluation results have been completed. What is the process of returning to the game after the diagnosis of concussion? After the player is diagnosed with concussion, there are a series of requirements for returning to the game. The specific content is included in the guide of this season. The guide points out that players suffering from concussion are not allowed to enter the evaluation process of returning to the game within 24 hours after being injured. If Davis is diagnosed with concussion, the following requirements must be met if he wants to return to the game: 1. No concussion-related symptoms during rest; 2. Passed the evaluation of doctors with experience in concussion treatment and nursing; 3. Completed the evaluation process of NBA returning to the game, including a series of tedious checks and physical training with gradually increasing intensity-“from riding a fixed bicycle to jogging and agility training, finally, go to non-contact team training”; 4. The person in charge of NBA concussion agreement and the team doctor will evaluate, discuss and analyze the return to the game, and the team doctor will make the final decision. If Davis triggers the concussion protection protocol, when will it return? NBA’s official concussion regulations point out that “there is no specific time limit for completing the whole process” and “every player is injured in a different situation, the specific recovery time can be adjusted according to the specific situation”. According to Mayo Clinic (a hospital in Minnesota), most concussion symptoms disappear within a few days, but sometimes it lasts for weeks or even longer. Most people usually recover completely after concussion, but sometimes symptoms and signs are not easy to detect and will not appear in the first place.
