Factors associated with follow-up care after pediatric concussion: A longitudinal population-based study in Alberta, Canada.

Follow-up care for pediatric concussion has increased over time and is associated with patient age and sex, history of concussion-related EOC, where a patient lives (community type and area-based SES), and when and where the index visit occurs. A better understanding of which children are more likely to receive follow-up care, as well as how and when they do, is an important step in aligning practice with follow-up guidelines.
