International Concussion Management Consensus (ICMC)

The International Concussion Management Consensus (ICMC) is a set of guidelines developed by experts worldwide to improve the diagnosis, treatment, and recovery of individuals with concussions. It provides evidence-based recommendations to ensure safe assessment and management, aiming to prevent further injury and support proper healing. The consensus emphasizes individualized care, cautious return-to-activity protocols, and ongoing monitoring. Its goal is to standardize concussion management across different settings—such as sports, healthcare, and workplaces—so individuals recover safely and return to their normal activities as efficiently as possible.
