Objective
To determine the extent to which the content of the Quality of Life in Neurological Disorders (Neuro-QoL) covers the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) Core Sets for multiple sclerosis (MS), stroke, spinal cord injury (SCI), and traumatic brain injury (TBI) using summary linkage indicators.Design
Content analysis by linking content of the Neuro-QoL to corresponding ICF codes of each Core Set for MS, stroke, SCI, and TBI.Setting
Three academic centers.Participants
None.Interventions
None.Main Outcome Measures
Four summary linkage indicators proposed by MacDermid et al were estimated to compare the content coverage between Neuro-QoL and the ICF codes of Core Sets for MS, stroke, MS, and TBI.Results
Neuro-QoL represented 20% to 30% Core Set codes for different conditions in which more codes in Core Sets for MS (29%), stroke (28%), and TBI (28%) were covered than those for SCI in the long-term (20%) and early postacute (19%) contexts. Neuro-QoL represented nearly half of the unique Activity and Participation codes (43%–49%) and less than one third of the unique Body Function codes (12%?32%). It represented fewer Environmental Factors codes (2%?6%) and no Body Structures codes. Absolute linkage indicators found that at least 60% of Neuro-QoL items were linked to Core Set codes (63%?95%), but many items covered the same codes as revealed by unique linkage indicators (7%?13%), suggesting high concept redundancy among items.Conclusions
The Neuro-QoL links more closely to ICF Core Sets for stroke, MS, and TBI than to those for SCI, and primarily covers activity and participation ICF domains. Other instruments are needed to address concepts not measured by the Neuro-QoL when a comprehensive health assessment is needed. 相似文献2.

Objective
To characterize behavioral and health outcomes in veterans with traumatic brain injury (TBI) acquired in nondeployment and deployment settings.Design
Cross-sectional assessment evaluating TBI acquired during and outside of deployment, mental and behavioral health symptoms, and diagnoses.Setting
Veterans Affairs Medical Centers.Participants
Iraq and Afghanistan veterans who were deployed to a warzone (N=1399).Interventions
Not applicable.Main Outcome Measures
Comprehensive lifetime TBI interview, Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Disorders, Combat Exposure Scale, and behavioral and health measures.Results
There was a main effect of deployment TBI on depressive symptoms, posttraumatic stress symptoms, poor sleep quality, substance use, and pain. Veterans with deployment TBI were also more likely to have a diagnosis of bipolar, major depressive, alcohol use, and posttraumatic stress disorders than those who did not have a deployment TBI.Conclusions
TBIs acquired during deployment are associated with different behavioral and health outcomes than TBI acquired in nondeployment environments. The presence of TBI during deployment is associated with poorer behavioral outcomes, as well as a greater lifetime prevalence of behavioral and health problems in contrast to veterans without deployment TBI. These results indicate that problems may persist chronically after a deployment TBI and should be considered when providing care for veterans. Veterans with deployment TBI may require treatment alterations to improve engagement and outcomes. 相似文献3.

Objectives
To evaluate (1) the trajectory of resilience during the first year after a moderate-severe traumatic brain injury (TBI); (2) factors associated with resilience at 3, 6, and 12 months postinjury; and (3) changing relationships over time between resilience and other factors.Design
Longitudinal analysis of an observational cohort.Setting
Five inpatient rehabilitation centers.Participants
Patients with TBI (N=195) enrolled in the resilience module of the TBI Model Systems study with data collected at 3-, 6-, and 12-month follow-up.Interventions
Not applicable.Main Outcome Measure
Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale.Results
Initially, resilience levels appeared to be stable during the first year postinjury. Individual growth curve models were used to examine resilience over time in relation to demographic, psychosocial, and injury characteristics. After adjusting for these characteristics, resilience actually declined over time. Higher levels of resilience were related to nonminority status, absence of preinjury substance abuse, lower anxiety and disability level, and greater life satisfaction.Conclusions
Resilience is a construct that is relevant to understanding brain injury outcomes and has potential value in planning clinical interventions. 相似文献4.

Objectives
To investigate the role of spinal cord injury (SCI) peer mentorship on quality of life (QoL)/participation, and test a self-determination theory model that explains the role of SCI peer mentorship on these outcomes.Design
A static group comparison design.Setting
Community.Participants
A convenience sample of mentees (individuals receiving peer mentorship) (n=68) and nonmentees (n=63) who had an SCI, were older than 18 years, and spoke either English or French.Interventions
Mentees: at least 4 peer mentorship sessions over the past 5 years; nonpeer mentees: 0 or 1 brief introductory session.Main Outcome Measures
QoL (ie, life satisfaction and positive and negative affect), participation (eg, autonomous indoor; family role), and the psychological needs of autonomy, competence, and relatedness.Results
No group differences were found, but years since injury was a moderator indicating that, generally, peer mentees living with SCI for longer (~30y) appear to benefit more from peer mentorship interactions compared with nonmentees and mentees living with SCI for approximately 6 years. Competence and relatedness mediated the peer mentorship–outcome relationship for QoL and some participation variables, indicating that peer mentorship predicted competence and relatedness, which in turn were related to the outcomes.Conclusions
Satisfaction of competence and relatedness needs requires greater attention in SCI peer mentorship. Years since injury modified the relationship between peer mentorship and outcomes, which provided new insights on the role of SCI peer mentorship. Further studies are needed to determine SCI peer mentorship–specific outcomes that are important across the years-since-injury spectrum. 相似文献6.

Objective
To test the feasibility and validity of an online version of an established interview designed to determine a lifetime history of traumatic brain injury (TBI).Design
Cross-sectional.Setting
General community.Participants
A volunteer sample of individuals (N= 265) from the general population across the United States.Interventions
Not applicable.Main Outcome Measure(s)
Online version of the Ohio State University Traumatic Brain Injury Identification Method, Rivermead Postconcussion Symptoms Questionnaire (RPQ), Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Cognitive Concerns Scale.Results
The measure was completed by 89.4% of the sample with most participants completing the measure in <8 minutes. After controlling for age, sex, psychiatric history, drug or alcohol history, and history of developmental disability, worst TBI severity was significantly associated with scores on the RPQ, F(2,230)=4.56, P=.011, and having a TBI within the past 2 years was associated with higher scores on the cognitive factor subscale of the RPQ, F(1,75)=7.7, P=.007.Conclusions
The online administration of the Ohio State University Traumatic Brain Injury Identification Method appears to be feasible in the general population. Preliminary validity was demonstrated for the indices of worst TBI severity and time since most recent TBI. 相似文献7.

Objective
To describe and synthesize the literature on adult traumatic brain injury (TBI) family caregiver and dyad intervention. TBI is a common injury that has a significant long-term impact, and is sometimes even characterized as a chronic condition. Informal (ie, unpaid) family caregivers of adults with TBI experience high rates of burnout, depression, fatigue, anxiety, lower subjective well-being, and poorer levels of physical health compared to noncaregivers. This study addresses the critical gap in the understanding of interventions designed to address the impact of TBI on adult patients and their family caregivers.Data Sources
PubMed and MEDLINE.Study Selection
Studies selected for review had to be written in English and be quasi-experimental or experimental in design, report on TBI caregivers, survivors with heavy involvement of caregivers, or caregiver dyads, involve moderate and severe TBI, and describe an intervention implemented during some portion of the TBI care continuum.Data Extraction
The search identified 2171 articles, of which 14 met our criteria for inclusion. Of the identified studies, 10 were randomized clinical trials and 4 were nonrandomized quasi-experimental studies. A secondary search to describe studies that included individuals with other forms of acquired brain injury in addition to TBI resulted in 852 additional titles, of which 5 met our inclusion criteria.Data Synthesis
Interventions that targeted the caregiver primarily were more likely to provide benefit than those that targeted caregiver/survivor dyad or the survivor only. Many of the studies were limited by poor fidelity, low sample sizes, and high risk for bias based on randomization techniques.Conclusions
Future studies of TBI caregivers should enroll a more generalizable number of participants and ensure adequate fidelity to properly compare interventions. 相似文献8.

Objective
To examine the ability of the Spinal Cord Injury-Functional Index/Assistive Technology (SCI-FI/AT) measure to detect change in persons with spinal cord injury (SCI).Design
Multisite longitudinal (12-mo follow-up) study.Setting
Nine SCI Model Systems programs.Participants
Adults (N=165) with SCI enrolled in the SCI Model Systems database.Interventions
Not applicable.Main Outcome Measures
SCI-FI/AT computerized adaptive test (CAT) (Basic Mobility, Self-Care, Fine Motor Function, Wheelchair Mobility, and/or Ambulation domains) completed at discharge from rehabilitation and 12 months after SCI. For each domain, effect size estimates and 95% confidence intervals were calculated for subgroups with paraplegia and tetraplegia.Results
The demographic characteristics of the sample were as follows: 46% (n=76) individuals with paraplegia, 76% (n=125) male participants, 57% (n=94) used a manual wheelchair, 38% (n=63) used a power wheelchair, 30% (n=50) were ambulatory. For individuals with paraplegia, the Basic Mobility, Self-Care, and Ambulation domains of the SCI-FI/AT detected a significantly large amount of change; in contrast, the Fine Motor Function and Wheelchair Mobility domains detected only a small amount of change. For those with tetraplegia, the Basic Mobility, Fine Motor Function, and Self-Care domains detected a small amount of change whereas the Ambulation item domain detected a medium amount of change. The Wheelchair Mobility domain for people with tetraplegia was the only SCI-FI/AT domain that did not detect significant change.Conclusions
SCI-FI/AT CAT item banks detected an increase in function from discharge to 12 months after SCI. The effect size estimates for the SCI-FI/AT CAT vary by domain and level of lesion. Findings support the use of the SCI-FI/AT CAT in the population with SCI and highlight the importance of multidimensional functional measures. 相似文献9.

Objectives
To measure the prevalence of asymptomatic bacteriuria (ASB) in persons with spinal cord injury (SCI) at the time of their annual examination and to examine the effect on urine testing during the annual examination on subsequent antibiotic use.Design
Retrospective cohort study.Setting
A major SCI center.Participants
Veterans (N=393) with SCI seen for an outpatient annual evaluation in 2012 or 2013.Interventions
Not applicable.Main Outcome Measures
Antibiotic use for bacteriuria within 7 days of the annual evaluation encounter.Results
There were 327 clinic visits that met inclusion criteria; of these 327 veterans, 249 had a urine culture performed. A total of 171 urine cultures (69%) were positive for bacteria, of which 22 (13%) represented urinary tract infection (UTI) cases and 149 (87%) were ASB cases. More than a third of the ASB cases (n=53 [36%]) were treated with antibiotics. None of the 78 visits with negative urine cultures received antibiotics to treat the UTI; thus, a positive urine culture alone was associated with antibiotic use (P<.01). Factors predicting antibiotic use were higher age, nitrite presence on urinalysis, and urease-producing organism on culture media. When comparing bladder management strategies, indwelling catheterization was found to be associated with higher levels of pyuria and hematuria than did spontaneous voiding or intermittent catheterization (P<.01).Conclusions
Two-thirds of the urine cultures of persons with SCI presenting for their annual examination were positive. Most of the positive cultures represented ASB cases, and more than a third of these were treated with antibiotics. A better understanding of the mandate for urine testing at the annual examination and the outcomes of this practice is an important first step in developing antibiotic stewardship for UTI in persons with SCI. 相似文献10.

Objective
To prospectively compare the proportion of traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) that would be classified as mild by applying different published definitions of mild TBI to a large prospectively collected dataset, and to examine the variability in the proportions included by various definitions.Design
Prospective observational study.Setting
Hospital emergency departments.Participants
Children (N=11,907) aged 3 to 16 years (mean age, 8.2±3.9y). Of the participants, 3868 (32.5%) were girls, and 7374 (61.9%) of the TBIs were the result of a fall. Median Glasgow Coma Scale score was 15.Main Outcome Measures
We applied 17 different definitions of mild TBI, identified through a published systematic review, to children aged 3 to 16 years. Adjustments and clarifications were made to some definitions. The number and percentage identified for each definition is presented.Results
Adjustments had to be made to the 17 definitions to apply to the dataset: none in 7, minor to substantial in 10. The percentage classified as mild TBI across definitions varied from 7.1% (n=841) to 98.7% (n=11,756) and varied by age group.Conclusions
When applying the 17 definitions of mild TBI to a large prospective multicenter dataset of TBI, there was wide variability in the number of cases classified. Clinicians and researchers need to be aware of this variability when examining literature concerning children with mild TBI. 相似文献11.

Objective
To examine the different sources of medications, the most common drug classes filled, and the characteristics associated with Medicare Part D pharmacy use in veterans with spinal cord injury/disorder (SCI/D).Design
Retrospective, cross-sectional, observational study.Setting
Outpatient clinics and pharmacies.Participants
Veterans (N=13,442) with SCI/D using Medicare or Veteran Affairs pharmacy benefits.Interventions
Not applicable.Main Outcome Measures
Characteristics and top 10 most common drug classes were examined in veterans who (1) used VA pharmacies only; (2) used both VA and Medicare Part D pharmacies; or (3) used Part D pharmacies only. Chi-square tests and multinomial logistic regression analyses were used to determine associations between various patient variables and source of medications. Patient level frequencies were used to determine the most common drug classes.Results
A total of 13,442 veterans with SCI/D were analyzed in this study: 11,788 (87.7%) used VA pharmacies only, 1281 (9.5%) used both VA and Part D pharmacies, and 373 (2.8%) used Part D pharmacies only. Veterans older than 50 years were more likely to use Part D pharmacies, whereas those with traumatic injury, or secondary conditions, were less associated with the use of Part D pharmacies. Opioids were the most frequently filled drug class across all groups. Other frequently used drug classes included skeletal muscle relaxants, gastric medications, antidepressants (other category), anticonvulsants, and antilipemics.Conclusions
Approximately 12% of veterans with SCI/D are receiving medication outside the VA system. Polypharmacy in this population of veterans is relatively high, emphasizing the importance of health information exchange between systems for improved care for this medically complex population. 相似文献12.

Objectives
Examine whether coping flexibility at admission to first spinal cord injury (SCI) rehabilitation was predictive of distress 1 year after discharge.Design
Longitudinal inception cohort study.Setting
Rehabilitation center.Participants
Of the 210 people admitted to their first inpatient SCI rehabilitation program, 188 met the inclusion criteria. n=150 (80%) agreed to participate; the data of participants (N=113) with a complete dataset were used in the statistical analysis.Interventions
Not applicable.Main Outcome Measures
Coping flexibility was operationalized by (1) flexible goal adjustment (FGA) to given situational forces and constraints and (2) tenacious goal pursuit (TGP) as a way of actively adjusting circumstances to personal preference. The Assimilative-Accommodative Coping Scale was used to measure FGA and TGP. The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale was used to assess distress.Results
Scores on FGA and TGP measured at admission were negatively associated with the scales depression (r= ?.33 and ?.41, respectively) and anxiety (r= ?.23 and ?.30, respectively) 1 year after discharge. All demographic and injury-related variables at admission together explained a small percentage of the variance of depression and anxiety. FGA, TGP, and the interaction term together explained a significant additional 16% of the variance of depression and 10% of anxiety.Conclusions
The tendency to pursue goals early postonset of the injury seems to have a protecting effect against distress 1 year after discharge. People with low TGP may experience protection against distress from high FGA. 相似文献13.

Objectives
To determine (1) agreement of musculoskeletal ultrasound (MSK-US) findings of shoulder pathology and related shoulder special test results in individuals with varied durations of manual wheelchair (MWC) use after spinal cord injury (SCI); and (2) whether shoulder musculoskeletal impairments, per MSK-US and clinical examination, differed in individuals with SCI and varying durations of MWC use.Design
Cross-sectional cohort study.Setting
Laboratory setting.Participants
Adult volunteers (N=23) with SCI who used an MWC for community mobility. Individuals were stratified into 3 groups based on duration of MWC use: <5 years, 5 to 15 years, and >15 years.Interventions
Not applicable.Main Outcome Measures
Special tests for shoulder impingement and bicipital tendonitis were performed. Bilateral shoulder MSK-US was performed, with the Ultrasound Shoulder Pathology Rating Scale (USPRS) quantifying biceps tendon, supraspinatus tendon, and greater tuberosity cortical surface impairments.Results
No agreement was found between MSK-US and related special tests. Special tests failed to identify impairment in 33.3% to 100% of those identified on MSK-US. The total USPRS score was highest in those with >15 years' MWC use. A higher proportion of dynamic impingement (supraspinatus and biceps) was found in those with >15 years' MWC use, with other MSK-US items having moderate effect sizes among duration-use groups.Conclusions
MSK-US identified shoulder impairments more frequently than commonly used special tests. A significant increase in the presence of MSK-US shoulder impairments was identified in the longest-duration group. This was not the case for special tests or pain. MSK-US is an easily administered, low-cost, noninvasive method for determining shoulder impairments and should be used in routine screening of individuals who use an MWC after SCI. 相似文献15.

Objectives
To evaluate the relation between wheelchair breakdowns, their immediate consequences, and secondary health complications after spinal cord injury. “Immediate consequences” occur when part of a wheelchair breaks and leaves an individual stranded or injured, or causes him or her to miss medical appointments, work, or school.Design
Survey, cross-sectional.Setting
Spinal Cord Injury Model Systems Centers.Participants
Full-time wheelchair users (N=771) with SCI from 9 Spinal Cord Injury Model Systems Centers, with data collected between 2011 and 2016.Interventions
Not applicable.Main Outcome Measures
Incidence of self-reported wheelchair breakdowns within the past 6 months that did or did not result in immediate consequences (ie, injury, being stranded, missing a medical appointment, or an inability to attend school/work); self-perceived health status scale; pain severity numerical rating scale; rehospitalizations; and self-reported pressure injury development within the past 12 months.Results
A total of 610 participants with complete data sets were included in the analyses. When compared to those who reported no breakdowns, participants who reported 1 or more immediate consequences had worse secondary complications: higher self-perceived health status and pain scores (partial ?η2=.009-.012, P<.05), and higher odds of rehospitalization (odds ratio: 1.86, P<.05) and pressure injury development (odds ratio: 1.73, P<.05). Secondary health complications were not different in those who reported no immediate consequences compared to those who reported no breakdown.Conclusions
Wheelchair breakdowns that resulted in injury, being stranded, missing medical appointments, and/or an inability to attend work/school appear to have far-reaching impacts on health and secondary injury. Preventing wheelchair breakdowns, through either better maintenance or manufacturing, may be a means of decreasing secondary disability. 相似文献16.

Objectives
To develop, for versions completed by individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and an observer, a more precise metric for the Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI) Irritability and Aggression subscales using all behavioral item ratings for use with individuals with TBI and to address the dimensionality of the represented behavioral domains.Design
Rasch and confirmatory factor analyses of retrospective baseline NPI data from 3 treatment studies.Setting
Postacute rehabilitation clinic.Participants
NPI records (N = 525) consisting of observer ratings (n = 287) and self-ratings (n = 238) by participants with complicated mild, moderate, or severe TBI at least 6 months postinjury.Interventions
Not applicable.Main Outcome Measures
Frequency and severity ratings from NPI Irritability/Lability and Agitation/Aggression subscales.Results
Confirmatory factor analyses of both observer and participant ratings showed good fit for either a 1-factor or a 2-factor solution. Consistent with this, the Rasch model also fit the data well with aggression items indicating the more severe end of the construct and irritability items populating the milder end.Conclusions
Irritability and aggression appear to represent different levels of severity of a single construct. The derived Rasch metric offers a measure of this construct based on responses to all specific items that is appropriate for parametric statistical analysis and may be useful in research and clinical assessments of individuals with TBI. 相似文献17.

Objective
To evaluate the effects of pressure threshold respiratory training (RT) on heart rate variability and baroreflex sensitivity in persons with chronic spinal cord injury (SCI).Design
Before-after intervention case-controlled clinical study.Setting
SCI research center and outpatient rehabilitation unit.Participants
Participants (N=44) consisted of persons with chronic SCI ranging from C2 to T11 who participated in RT (n=24), and untrained control subjects with chronic SCI ranging from C2 to T9 (n=20).Interventions
A total of 21±2 RT sessions performed 5 days a week during a 4-week period using a combination of pressure threshold inspiratory and expiratory devices.Main Outcome Measures
Forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), and beat-to-beat arterial blood pressure and heart rate changes during the 5-second-long maximum expiratory pressure maneuver (5s MEP) and the sit-up orthostatic stress test, acquired before and after the RT program.Results
In contrast to the untrained controls, individuals in the RT group experienced significantly increased FVC and FEV1 (both P<.01) in association with improved quality of sleep, cough, and speech. Sympathetically (phase II) and parasympathetically (phase IV) mediated baroreflex sensitivity both significantly (P<.05) increased during the 5s MEP. During the orthostatic stress test, improved autonomic control over heart rate was associated with significantly increased sympathetic and parasympathetic modulation (low- and high-frequency change: P<.01 and P<.05, respectively).Conclusions
Inspiratory-expiratory pressure threshold RT is a promising technique to positively affect both respiratory and cardiovascular dysregulation observed in persons with chronic SCI. 相似文献19.

Background
Mortality prediction in patients with brain trauma during initial management in the emergency department (ED) is essential for creating the foundation for a better prognosis.Objective
This study aimed to create a simple and useful survival predictive model for patients with isolated blunt traumatic brain injury that is easily available in the ED.Methods
This is a retrospective study based on the trauma registry data of an academic teaching hospital. The inclusion criteria were age ≥ 15 years, blunt and not penetrating mechanism of injury, and Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS) scores between 1 and 6 for head and 0 for all other body parts. The primary outcome was 30-day survival probability. Internal and external validation was performed.Results
After univariate logistic regression analysis based on the derivation cohort, the final Predictor of Isolated Trauma in Head (PITH) model for survival prediction of isolated traumatic brain injury included Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), age, and coded AIS of the head. In the validation cohort, the area under the curve of the PITH score was 0.970 (p < 0.0001; 95% confidence interval 0.960–0.978). Sensitivity and specificity were 95% and 81.7% at the cutoff value of 0.9 (probability of survival 90%), respectively.Conclusions
The PITH model performed better than the GCS; Revised Trauma Score; and mechanism of injury, GCS, age, and arterial pressure. It will be a useful triage method for isolated traumatic brain injury in the early phase of management. 相似文献20.
