Abstract：
Background Sports concussion (SC) management guidelines have recently been updated. A key focus is the emphasis on rest (immediately postinjury) followed by gradual resumption of activity (active recovery). This study aimed to explore community views on SC management and compared these with the guidelines. Methods A total of 157 volunteers completed an online SC survey, including listing three pieces of advice for a concussed person immediately postinjury, and after 2weeks (subacute). Quantitative data were statistically compared, and qualitative data underwent content analysis. Results Almost all participants offered different immediate versus subacute advice; however, rest featured highly at both timepoints. Commonly expressed themes, consistent with guidelines were immediate rest; safety and reinjury prevention; and symptom monitoring. Two themes were identified in the community advice with limited emphasis in the guidelines: general health advice and psychological and social support. Expert clinical assessment was not always identified in community advice. Conclusion Community members hold some views that align with expert advice for SC, particularly the importance of immediate postinjury rest. However, there is scope to grow public awareness of some recommended practices, including expert clinical assessment following injury and when to engage in active recovery.
摘要：
背景技术最近更新了运动脑震荡(SC)管理指南。重点是强调休息（受伤后立即），然后逐渐恢复活动（主动恢复）。本研究旨在探索社区对SC管理的看法，并将其与指南进行比较。方法157名志愿者完成在线SC调查,包括列出受伤后立即为脑震荡者提供的三条建议，2周后（亚急性）。定量数据进行了统计比较，定性数据进行了内容分析。结果几乎所有参与者都提供了不同的即时和亚急性建议；然而，休息在两个时间点都很高。通常表达的主题，与指南一致的是立即休息;安全性和再损伤预防;和症状监测.社区建议中确定了两个主题，但指南中的重点有限：一般健康建议以及心理和社会支持。专家临床评估并不总是在社区建议中确定。结论社区成员持有一些与SC专家意见一致的观点，特别是受伤后立即休息的重要性。然而,有机会提高公众对一些推荐做法的认识，包括受伤后的专家临床评估以及何时进行积极恢复。
