And I honestly didn't realize you were a former wwe wrestler before I saw a video that mentioned you and I've been following for years on here 2.3K views · 5 likes · 0 reposts · 0 replies 23 Oct 2024 I regret not identifying SHAAKE sooner. Tua displayed it in 2022 in the game where they concluded his fall was due to a back injury. If they knew SHAAKE was a concussion 92% of the time in football players, I think they keep him out of the Thursday game. https://t.co/dh5Yi2rFWE 8.4K views · 37 likes · 8 reposts · 2 replies 23 Oct 2024 Here is a link to the full study. I am hopeful sports & medical organizations add it to their potential signs of concussion immediately. But be vigilant! Can happen on the field, the bench, the locker room & more. More studies to come. https://t.co/daHK3yQUVu 9.2K views · 50 likes · 12 reposts · 1 replies 23 Oct 2024 In our study, SHAAKE had a positive predictive value of 72%, so 3 out of 4 times you see it, it's due to concussion symptoms. Top 2 symptoms were: 1. Disorientation/confusion (25%) 2. A feeling like you needed to jumpstart your brain (23%) Press release: https://t.co/RClHiXQ9xH 8K views · 43 likes · 11 reposts · 1 replies 23 Oct 2024 I am kicking myself for not realizing this sooner. SHAAKE has been depicted in movies, TV & cartoons my entire life. I even performed SHAAKE as a WWE pro wrestler. Here are some examples from Rocky, The Simpsons, Tom & Jerry, Christmas Vacation, & more. https://t.co/B 6.9K views · 48 likes · 7 reposts · 2 replies 23 Oct 2024 Here are 5 examples of SHAAKE we used in the study, which surveyed 347 athletes, average age 27, asking if they'd made the motion & what they were experiencing when they did it. 69% had made the motion, with 93% them displaying a SHAAKE due to experiencing #concussion symptom 9.4K views · 91 likes · 17 reposts · 3 replies 23 Oct 2024 Excited to announce that colleagues & I have identified a new #concussion sign that's been hiding in plain sight. We named it Spontaneous Headshake After a Kinematic Event, or SHAAKE.
