Brief Summary:
Mild traumatic brain injury TBI is a common injury that can produce significant functional sequelae and ongoing disabling symptoms Predicting who will have an uncomplicated recovery and who will suffer ongoing symptoms is difficult This protocol evaluates the use of neuropsychologic testing after mild TBI in injured patients to attempt to objectively establish predictors of long term disability and functional recovery
Detailed Description:
Patients who are hospitalized and who have suffered mild TBI loss of consciousness or post-traumatic amnesia Glasgow Coma Score 13-15 admitted within 24 hours of injury able to read speak and understand English who do not have pre-injury dementia or significant cognitive impairment will undergo computerized neuropsychologic testing using a previously validated tool that has been effective in sports-related mild TBI Sequential testing will be performed during recovery and patients who report disabling symptoms andor functional impairment will be compared to patients who recover uneventfully Goal is to identify those parameters that predict early who may suffer long term sequelae or functional impairment and therefore benefit from early cognitive rehabilitation Secondary goals are to establish objective parameters for functional recovery after mild TBI
