When to Use

Post-concussion assessment for athletes prior to clearance for full sport participation

Evaluation of lower extremity injury recovery (e.g., ACL reconstruction, ankle sprain) to determine readiness for sport-specific demands

Pre-season baseline testing for collision/contact sport athletes to establish individual performance norms

Serial monitoring during rehabilitation to track progress and identify deficits in neuromuscular control, strength, and power

Return-to-sport decision-making after upper extremity injuries (e.g., shoulder instability, labral repair) using sport-specific functional tests

Key Indication - Post-Concussion Return to Play Clearance

The Return To Play Battery is primarily indicated for athletes who have sustained a concussion and are progressing through the return-to-sport protocol. According to the Consensus Statement on Concussion in Sport (Berlin 2016), a comprehensive battery including symptom assessment, neurocognitive testing, balance evaluation (e.g., BESS), and exertional tolerance (e.g., Buffalo Concussion Treadmill Test) is recommended before medical clearance. The battery helps identify residual deficits that increase risk of recurrent injury or prolonged recovery.

When Not to Use / Contraindications

Acute concussion with persistent symptoms at rest (within first 24-48 hours) – physical exertion may exacerbate symptoms

Unstable cervical spine or acute fracture – requires immobilization and emergency referral

Uncontrolled cardiovascular or metabolic conditions that preclude maximal exertion testing

Acute musculoskeletal injury with weight-bearing restrictions (e.g., complete ACL tear, displaced fracture)

Severe vestibular or ocular dysfunction that prevents safe completion of balance or coordination tasks

Lack of baseline data for comparison – interpretation may be limited without pre-injury norms
