What methods are used to monitor an athletes condition after a concussion/ head injury? what issues are associated with these methods? are the quantitative and reliable? thank you in advance?

Neuro cognitive test: Most athletes are screened pre season with a neuro cognitive test for a baseline test. If a concussion occurs repeat tests can be ordered and compared to baseline. Very reliable.
