Mild traumatic brain injury, commonly known as concussion, involves subtle yet significant disruptions to brain function following external force. Updated clinical guidelines emphasise structured evaluation, recognising that symptoms may be transient but complex. Diagnosis relies heavily on clinical assessment rather than imaging, with emerging tools supporting decision-making. Careful follow-up, patient education, and graduated return-to-activity protocols are essential to promote recovery and prevent complications, reflecting an evolving, patient-centred approach to this heterogeneous condition.

The Immediate Post-Concussion Assessment and Cognitive Testing (ImPACT) is a vital tool in the assessment of concussions, providing objective data on cognitive function and symptomatology. This article explores how ImPACT can differentiate between symptoms originating from concussions, psychological conditions, and malingering. Through cognitive assessments, symptom tracking, baseline comparisons, and validity indicators, ImPACT aids clinicians in distinguishing between these conditions. However, it emphasizes that ImPACT should be part of a comprehensive clinical evaluation for accurate diagnosis and effective management.
