Athlete Health

Healthcare providers – including certified athletic trainers, physicians, neuropsychologists, nurses and EMTs – are critical in the care of student athletes. VistaLifeSciences empowers the medical team managing student health with ANAM4™ [Automated Neuropsychological Assessment Metrics].

VistaLifeSciences is dedicated to improving student health.  Improved knowledge and management of concussive injury in sports is essential.

Athlete 'baseline' neurocognitive assessments are created using ANAM4. Baselines are compared to post-injury assessments so medical professionals and team management can make the most informed return-to-play decisions.

VistaLifeSciences believes a team’s local medical advisors have the most potential to safeguard and improve student health. VistaLifeSciences is dedicated to empowering these advisors with the best information and technology available to preserve and enhance student athlete health.

In 2007, a study funded by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) concluded that ANAM4 is an excellent tool for use with student athletes. By creating baseline neuropsychological assessments ANAM4, team management has an excellent tool to assist in identifying symptoms of concussion.

ANAM4 was at the core of the landmark West Point Boxing Study, which focused on concussive injury in student athletes and post-injury return-to-play issues. ANAM4 metrics were used in the study. The study was a landmark in demonstrating evidence based athlete health management using ANAM metrics.
