Do concussion clinicians use clinical practice guidelines?

Participants viewed concussion CPGs as helpful tools for informing clinical practice. That less experienced clinicians were less likely to use concussion CPGs than more experienced clinicians suggests there is an opportunity to develop strategies to improve the uptake of CPGs among newer clinicians. This and other areas of further research include how well CPGs capture relevant cultural factors and the role of case complexity in clinicians' willingness to use concussion CPGs.
