The SCAT5 is a standardized tool for evaluating concussions designed for use by physicians and licensed medical professionals. Difference in SCAT5 scores between the concussion and non-concussion group. SCAT5 scores the number of symptoms (0-22) present and the severity of symptoms (0-132).

Oral morphine equivalent of consumed opioidsPost-operatively to hospital discharge, up to 10 days.

Difference of post-operative opioid use between the concussion and non-concussion group

Length of hospital stayPost-operatively to hospital discharge, up to 30 days.

Difference between the concussion and non-concussion group

Cognitive Deficits identified by NeuroPsychometric Cognitive TestingPre-anesthetic to one week Post-anesthetic

Difference between the concussion and non-concussion group.

Numeric Pain Scale 0-10Post-operatively to hospital discharge, up to 10 days.

Difference in numeric pain scale between the concussion and non-concussion group. Patients verbally select a value that is in line with the intensity of pain they have experienced in the last 24 hours. Pain Scale is recorded "0" = no pain, "10" = the most pain imaginable.
