An issue of relevance to OIF is that returning service members often report exposure to repeated blasts and other concussive events. We know that recovery is impaired with repeated concussions. The worst case scenario is “second impact syndrome” in which a second impact received before the brain has had a chance to heal from a prior injury can lead to an extreme chain of biochemical events that can actually result in death. So it is important to assess for exposure to prior events, to follow these patients more closely and have different expectations regarding the expected level of symptoms and rate of recovery.
R3 = Rehabilitation, Recovery & Reintegration
Listed here are common postconcussive symptoms in the three areas. Common physical symptoms that we see include headaches and dizziness or balance problems. In terms of emotional symptoms, irritability and mood lability are particularly common in returning servicemembers. Cognitive complaints most commonly endorsed include poor concentration and short term memory problems.
The sites in gray have both RECs & RCCs but do not gave regional responsibilities.

Accumulation of abnormal Tau protein in the form of NFTs and NTs in the brain has been confirmed to cause neurodegeneration, cognitive impairment and dementia. A study commissioned by the NFL reports that Alzheimer’s-like memory-related disease appears to have been diagnosed in the league’s former players vastly more often than in the national population – including a rate of 19 times the normal rate for men ages 30 through 49. - Study conducted by University of Michigan’s Institute for Social Research
