Description: An accurate and reliable method for identifying athletes with head trauma, and a strong candidate rapid sideline screening test for concussion. The test is able to capture impairments of eye movement, attention, language and other symptoms of impaired brain function. It is a physical method of evaluating visual tracking and saccadic eye movements is based on the time to perform rapid number naming. It involves reading aloud a series of single digit numbers from left to right on three test cards. Participants are asked to read the numbers on each card from left to right as quickly as possible but without making any errors. The sum of the three test card time scores constitutes the summary score for the entire test. The test is a proven indicator of oculomotor inefficiencies regarding eye movements during reading. Published medical studies have determined that deficiencies in saccadic eye movements can be an indicator of mild Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI) or concussions. Studies have shown that there is a significant relationship between poor oculomotor functions and learning disabilities (including dyslexia detection). Saccadic eye movement deficiencies can be improved with training and correspondingly reading performance also can be improved. Simply put, subjects who don''t perform well on this test are not efficient readers, although because there are many reasons for poor reading unrelated to eye movements, some poor readers do fine on the test. They believe that the test should be in the hands of teachers in order to help them determine if a student''s poor reading performance is related to deficiencies in their ability to move their eyes efficiently.
