CALGARY - A University of Calgary-led study has some positive news for parents whose children have suffered concussions, finding kids’ intelligence is not affected by the brain injury.
“People are really worried about concussion and it is nice to be able to give parents some good news, in that there doesn’t appear to be an alteration in a kid’s IQ or intellectual ability as a consequence of these injuries.” The study compared 566 children diagnosed with concussion to 300 with orthopedic injuries, or those to the musculoskeletal system. The children ranged in age from eight to 16 and they were recruited from the two previous studies.
