HIA PROTOCOLS
+ QED HIA

Every player establishes a personal cognitive baseline before the match. This is their individual standard — not a population average. Deviation from baseline triggers the QED protocol.

QED maps physiological asymmetry and pre-injury stress markers across the body, detecting imbalances before they become injuries. Heat mapping identifies stress zones in real time.

Understanding how a player's nervous system responds under physical demands. GBP (Galvanic Brain Potential) maps stress-response and collapse pathways unique to each athlete.

When a player is assessed pitch-side, QED delivers immediate, evidence-based neuro intervention via AcuScope microcurrent therapy — not observation and removal. This is the critical upgrade no current HIA protocol has.

Return-to-play is validated against the player's own baseline — not a generic protocol. Every step is measured, documented, and defensible. The Digital Brain Passport records the complete recovery arc.

The complete QED HIA pathway — for every player, every match, every season, every sport.

Moves governing bodies from reactive to proactive. QED creates an evidence trail that demonstrates active player welfare management — not passive observation.

Every QED assessment creates a timestamped, objective data record. For clubs, unions, and governing bodies, this is governance protection against future litigation.

For the first time, player protection is measurable. QED replaces subjective clinical opinion with objective neurological data — defensible in any tribunal or court.

Longitudinal data across a player's career identifies cumulative load, chronic stress patterns, and recovery trends — enabling proactive management of long-term brain health.

Governing bodies that adopt QED HIA demonstrate global leadership in athlete welfare — differentiating their sport in an era of increasing public and regulatory scrutiny.
