A common question I get in clinic when seeing patients for concussion is “what is the best helmet out there for my son or daughter?” Or what headgear is the best for sports that use headgear instead of helmets? Typically, we have the discussion that there is no helmet or headgear that prevents concussion, but we do know that some helmets and headgear perform better than other. But how is that determined? Today on the podcast we have the director of the Virginia Tech Helmet lab who will help us navigate the world of helmet and headgear ratings. We’ll learn the process about testing and how you can use that information to make an informed decision for a helmet purchase.
