o Head Injury Criteria (HIC): Head impact severity metric that relates injury to head acceleration
over time for a discrete time frame (15 ms). HIC is unit-less
o HIT SeverityProfile (HITsp): A weighted combination of biomechanical inputs (peak linear
acceleration, GSI, HIC, and impact location) used as a single impact metric to better quantify
head impact severity. HITsp is unit-less
o InSite Alert Protocol: InSite Alert Protocol has two types of impact Alerts, “Single Impactand
“Multiple Impact”. Both Alert types indicate that atypically high head-impact exposure has been
experienced by the player, and that clinical best practices should be used to conduct an
assessment for potential head injury (concussion). Alert thresholds are customized based on
level of play and playing position on the field. Alerts report atypically high exposure relative to
other players of similar level of play at the same playing position. (See Warnings - p.32)
Single Impact Alerts - Alerts impacts whose severities are above the predetermined
threshold for the player position and play level as assigned using InSite Player Management
software. Single event Alerts exceed the 99
th
percentile HITsp value for that skill level and
playing position (i.e. the top 1%) based on field data collected using the Riddell Sideline
Response System
Multiple Impact Alerts - are a proprietary cumulative exposure Alert created by a
combination of:
Cumulative Impact Exposure Score all impacts exceeding the 95
th
percentile (i.e.
top 5%) are added to a time-weighted rolling 7-day index
Magnitude of the most recent received impact
When the sum of the cumulative index and the most recent received impact exceeds a pre-
determined cumulative exposure threshold, a Multiple Impact Alert is generated. If a Player
has a high cumulative score, relatively small single impacts may result in over-exposure
and generation of a Multiple Impact Alert.
5. Alarm Threshold The Alert Pager system will page sideline personnel if the user selected alarm type
exceeds this threshold. A default for all alarm types is provided, however this can be modified for
individual players. If InSite is selected as the alarm type, the threshold cannot be changed.
Emergency Info Tab
The fields under the Emergency Info tab are used to enter emergency contact information for the player.
In addition to the contact information, you can enter basic medical information about the player (blood
type, medical bracelet information, etc.).
