Objective: To explore patterns of postconcussion care at a level 1 trauma center. Design: Retrospective cohort study. Setting: U.S. level 1 trauma center and local satellite units. Participants: Patients of any age with a concussion diagnosis that reported to level 1 trauma center and local satellite units between 2016 and 2018 (N=2417). Intervention: Not applicable. Main Outcome Measures: Age, sex, point of entry, rehabilitation referrals, and pre-existing comorbidity diagnosis.
