Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee  Dr. Frémont.

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee  Okay, I'll let you come back to that. One of the things we see, for example, the CAHA came out with mandatory trainers for every team, so we have them on the benches. The reality is that training program sometimes doesn't provide more than basic first aid. That's a challenge whe

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee  We have a lot of primary health care practitioners—and we chatted a bit earlier about this—who set up programs and specialties within those primary health care programs. They recognize that aspect, for example, for sports injuries, in particular, when we deal with concussions, et

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee  Thank you. I appreciate your comments regarding the questions from Mr. Webber and Mr. Casey. I think a lot of times on this committee there are a lot of people who don't understand how we walk ourselves through the injuries and what we see. While Dr. Eyolfson and I might have so

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee  Thank you. You both made an important point that no one concussion is (a) the same, (b) treated the same, and (c) comes out with the same results. I appreciate those comments, because that's an awareness thing that we need to know, and that we need to get out for the sporting b

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee  Thank you to all of you for being here and for bearing with us on a day like today. It's great to have researchers here. It's piqued my interest on a number of questions and aspects that I'd like to hear about. I'm trying to figure out where I want to start. A number of you ta

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee  Thank you. I know at the University of Ottawa they have a scanner that's been used in looking at PTSD aspects in veterans. There's some early research on that. Perhaps, Dr. Marshall. you might have some information that would correlate with this.

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee  Thank you. For many years I dealt with sports, in my time as a trainer, in my private practice, and then when I was one of the team doctors for our junior hockey team, so basically for 25 years. I reflect back today, and although I treated a lot of concussions over the years, it

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee  Thank you. I want to get through it quickly because I have limited time. I'd like to hear from both of you. Dr. Marshall, is it because we are more attuned to it?

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee  Dr. Tator, quickly, I probably only have about 20 seconds.

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee  Thank you, Mr. Chair. I'm going to stay on this topic, because it's one that has piqued my interest. Dr. Marshall, thank you very much for being here today. As you mentioned, we've discussed throughout how to take the information from one sport and put it to another. It sounds

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee  This is shared throughout the whole multidisciplinary spectrum of professionals; is that correct?

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee  Great, thank you. One thing we've talked a lot about is prevention and how to take this information, this data collection, which we need but don't have, to help us with prevention. It's great to see that often in sport.... For example, Dr. Schneider, in your comment about the vo

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee  Dr. Marshall, do you have any quick comment?

Subcommittee on Sports-Related Concussions in Canada committee  Thank you. I'm going to allow my colleague to ask one quick question.
