Institutionally Based ImPACT Test ® Normative Values May Differ from Manufacturer-Provided Normative Values.

CONCLUSIONS: Differences between manufacturer- and institution-based normative value distributions were observed. This has implications for an increased risk of misclassifying impairment following a concussion in lieu of comparison to baseline assessment and therefore supports the need to utilize baseline testing when feasible, or otherwise compare to institutionally derived norms rather than manufacturer-provided norms.
