Abstract

Abstract A concussion is a type of brain injury caused by a direct or indirect blow to the head or body causing the brain to move rapidly within the skull, resulting in immediate, but temporary, brain dysfunction. Concussions can happen when playing sports, during recreation, because of a fall or accident, or from an act of violence. Every year, approximately 42 million people worldwide, including at least 3 million in the United States, suffer from concussion, making it a public health issue. Persons of all ages, from the youngest children to the most aged adults, and from all walks of life can be affected by concussion. Identifying and understanding the best evidence for prevention and treatment of concussion can be challenging due to the vast amount of information available on the Internet.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Consumer Health on the Internet is the only professional peer-reviewed journal devoted to locating consumer health information via the Internet. In this journal librarians and health information providers describe programs and services aimed at helping patients and the general public find the health information they need. From the Editor: "Studies have shown that health information is one of the major reasons that people worldwide access the Internet. As the amount of health information on the Web increases exponentially, it becomes critical that librarians-including public and medical librarians-be knowledgeable about what is available online and be able to direct users to reliable, accurate, quality information."
