Concussion Care
Summit Neuro’s Approach to Concussion Care
At Summit Neuro, concussion care goes far beyond simply identifying symptoms. Our approach is rooted in comprehensive neurological testing, functional neuro-rehabilitation, and the integration of advanced NeuroAI technology to deliver individualized recovery pathways.
1. Comprehensive Neurological Testing
We begin by mapping the brain’s functional circuitry in detail. That includes:
- Oculomotor testing (saccades, pursuit tracking, gaze stability, vestibulo-ocular reflex, optokinetic response).
- Vestibular and balance assessments (Romberg variations, gait analysis, head impulse tests, postural sway).
- Cerebellar function checks (rebound test, finger-to-nose, rapid alternating movements, and other advanced assessments).
- Cranial nerve and brainstem reflex evaluations to identify subtle dysfunctions that may not show up on standard imaging.
- Cognitive and reaction-time profiling, linking frontal-executive and subcortical circuits to real-world performance.
This detailed testing allows us to uncover hidden deficits—such as micro-saccadic dysmetria, vestibular asymmetry, or slowed sensorimotor integration—that traditional evaluations often miss.
2. NeuroAI Interface
Where traditional care stops, Summit Neuro adds NeuroAI—a proprietary interface that:
- Analyzes test results at a high resolution, identifying patterns across eye movements, balance metrics, and reflex testing.
- Creates a personalized neural map, highlighting which circuits (vestibular nuclei, cerebellar vermis, frontal eye fields, basal ganglia loops, etc.) are contributing to symptoms like dizziness, brain fog, or delayed reaction time.
- Guides intervention selection, helping us match specific rehab drills to the exact circuit in need of recalibration.
- Tracks progress over time, showing patients and clinicians objective changes—improvements in milliseconds of reaction time, steadier balance graphs, or smoother eye-tracking curves.
3. Personalized Neuro-Rehab
With testing and NeuroAI insights combined, treatment becomes precisely targeted:
- Vestibular recalibration exercises to restore balance and motion tolerance.
- Eye-tracking drills to reduce dizziness, visual strain, and headaches.
- Cerebellar stimulation tasks to improve timing, coordination, and fluidity of movement.
- Cognitive performance training that sharpens attention, memory, and processing speed.
Instead of generic rest or “one-size-fits-all” therapy, each patient’s care plan is as unique as their concussion profile.
4. The Result
This model of care can accelerate recovery, reduce long-term risks, and support not just a return to baseline—but often, a higher level of brain performance and resilience than before the injury.
Summit Neuro Concussion Care = Advanced Neurological Testing + NeuroAI Precision + Personalized Rehab → Lasting Recovery + Performance Optimization
In Short Form: At Summit Neuro of Bellevue, concussion care means more than rest and symptom management—we map the brain’s circuitry with advanced neurological testing and pair it with our NeuroAI interface to uncover hidden deficits that standard exams miss. From eye-tracking and balance assessments to cerebellar and cognitive profiling, every detail is analyzed to create a personalized recovery plan. NeuroAI pinpoints the exact circuits involved, guides targeted rehabilitation, and tracks measurable progress, targeting patient recovery safely and also optimizes brain performance and resilience.
