Get an ImPACT test at our clinics.
Affidea, UPMC, Bon Secours Health System and ImPACT Applications have joined forces to offer testing and treatment for brain injury at Affidea clinics.
The UPMC-led treatment approach starts with a comprehensive evaluation for patients, including ImPACT® baseline testing, available now at eight Affidea centres throughout Ireland.
Used by most professional sports leagues, colleges and schools in the U.S. and Canada, ImPACT includes a 20-minute baseline test that patients take on a computer to measure neurocognitive function such as brain processing, speed, memory and visual motor skills.
In the event of a suspected concussion, the patient repeats the test, and his or her post-injury data is compared to baseline test data to help determine the severity and effects of the injury.
Affidea’s offering of baseline tests will be by far the largest effort to date in any EU country.
Affidea is Ireland’s leading provider of diagnostic imaging services, including MRI, Ultrasound, X-ray, CT and DEXA scans, operating a network of clinics across Ireland.
Affidea ExpressCare walk-in clinics at Tallaght Cross East in Dublin and The Elysian in Cork provide patients with an alternative to busy emergency departments.
