The investigators are training a group of four pediatric Sports Medicine providers in BPPV maneuvers. All four providers will be trained in the diagnostic maneuvers, and two will be randomly selected to also be trained in the treatment maneuvers. The providers will be encouraged to use the diagnostic maneuvers on all new concussion patients whose initial visit is within 28 days of their injury. They will complete a survey at the start and end of the study to determine if they thought the training affected their understanding of BPPV and confidence in managing it, as well as determine any challenges they faced with learning/administering the maneuvers. Additionally, the investigators will determine if the additional training impacts time to recovery from concussion, as well as determine potential risk factors for BPPV in concussion.
