OBJECTIVE: To compare the functional outcome, length of stay, and discharge disposition of individuals with brain tumor versus those with acute traumatic brain injury. DESIGN: In this study, 78 brain tumor patients were one-to-one matched by location of lesion and age with 78 acute traumatic brain injury patients. Outcome was measured by using the Functional Independence Measure (FIM 228) on admission and discharge. The FIM change and FIM efficiency were also calculated. FIM data were analyzed in three subsets, i.e., activities of daily living, mobility, and cognition. Discharge disposition and rehabilitation length of stay were also compared. RESULTS: Demographic variables of race, marital status, and payer source were comparable for the two groups. No significant difference was found between the brain tumor and the traumatic brain injury populations with respect to total admission FIM, total discharge FIM, and FIM efficiency. The brain injury population had a significantly greater change in FIM. The tumor group had a significantly shorter rehabilitation length of stay and a greater discharge to community rate. CONCLUSIONS: Thus, individuals with brain tumor can achieve comparable functional outcome and have a shorter rehabilitation length of stay and greater discharge to community rate than individuals with brain injury. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the role of agitation in the prediction of traumatic brain injury rehabilitation outcomes. DESIGN: A longitudinal study of 340 consecutive patients admitted to an acute traumatic brain injury rehabilitation unit was conducted. Outcomes under study included rehabilitation length of stay, discharge destination, functional independence at discharge (FIM instrument), productivity at 1-yr follow-up, and life satisfaction at 1-yr follow-up (Satisfaction with Life Scale). RESULTS: Univariate analyses suggested that the presence of agitation in rehabilitation is predictive of a longer length of stay and decreased functional independence in the cognitive realm at discharge. In addition, individuals who exhibit agitation at any time during rehabilitation are less likely to be discharged to a private residence. However, multivariate analyses indicated that cognitive functioning at admission to rehabilitation (FIM cognitive) mediates the relationship between the presence of agitation and length of rehabilitation, as well as between agitation and FIM cognitive at discharge. Similar results were found when discharge residence was the dependent variable; however, agitation also contributed some unique variance to the prediction. Lower cognitive functioning at admission to rehabilitation was associated with the occurrence of agitation during rehabilitation, longer length of stay, lower cognitive functioning at discharge, and a decreased likelihood that an individual would be discharged to a private residence. CONCLUSIONS: The results of the multivariate analyses support the contention that agitation and cognition are intimately related, with the long-term effects of the former being at least partially driven by the latter. These findings support the importance of systematically monitoring both agitation and cognition when applying interventions to reduce agitation. 相似文献

Macciocchi S, Seel RT, Warshowsky A, Thompson N, Barlow K. Co-occurring traumatic brain injury and acute spinal cord injury rehabilitation outcomes.ObjectiveTo determine the impact of co-occurring traumatic brain injury (TBI) on functional motor outcome and cognition during acute spinal cord injury (SCI) rehabilitation.DesignProspective, longitudinal cohort.SettingSingle-center National Institute of Disability and Rehabilitation Research SCI Model System.ParticipantsPersons aged 16 to 59 years (N=189) admitted for acute SCI rehabilitation during the 18-month recruitment window who met inclusion criteria.InterventionsNot applicable.Main Outcome MeasuresFIM Motor Scale (Rasch transformed) and acute rehabilitation length of stay (LOS).ResultsIn the tetraplegia sample, co-occurring TBI was not related to FIM Motor Scale scores or acute rehabilitation LOS despite having negative impacts on memory and problem solving. Persons with paraplegia who sustained co-occurring severe TBI had lower admission and discharge FIM Motor Scale scores and longer acute rehabilitation LOS than did persons with paraplegia and either no TBI or mild TBI. Persons with paraplegia and severe TBI had lower functional comprehension, problem solving, and memory and impairments on tests of processing speed compared with persons with paraplegia and no TBI, mild TBI, and moderate TBI. Persons with paraplegia and co-occurring mild and moderate TBI had equivalent acute rehabilitation motor outcomes and cognitive functioning compared with persons with paraplegia and no TBI.ConclusionsThis study provides evidence that persons aged 16 to 59 years with paraplegia and co-occurring severe TBI had worse motor outcomes and longer acute rehabilitation LOS than did persons with paraplegia and no TBI. Impairments in processing speed, comprehension, memory, and problem solving may explain suboptimal motor skill acquisition. Research with larger samples is required to determine whether mild and moderate TBI impact acute rehabilitation motor outcomes and LOS. 相似文献

Introduction
The relationship between hyperoxemia and outcome in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) is controversial. We sought to investigate the independent relationship between hyperoxemia and long-term mortality in patients with moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury.Methods
The Finnish Intensive Care Consortium database was screened for mechanically ventilated patients with a moderate-to-severe TBI. Patients were categorized, according to the highest measured alveolar-arterial O2 gradient or the lowest measured PaO2 value during the first 24 hours of ICU admission, to hypoxemia (<10.0 kPa), normoxemia (10.0 to 13.3 kPa) and hyperoxemia (>13.3 kPa). We adjusted for markers of illness severity to evaluate the independent relationship between hyperoxemia and 6-month mortality.Results
A total of 1,116 patients were included in the study, of which 16% (n = 174) were hypoxemic, 51% (n = 567) normoxemic and 33% (n = 375) hyperoxemic. The total 6-month mortality was 39% (n = 435). A significant association between hyperoxemia and a decreased risk of mortality was found in univariate analysis (P = 0.012). However, after adjusting for markers of illness severity in a multivariate logistic regression model hyperoxemia showed no independent relationship with 6-month mortality (hyperoxemia vs. normoxemia OR 0.88, 95% CI 0. 63 to 1.22, P = 0.43; hyperoxemia vs. hypoxemia OR 0.97, 95% CI 0.63 to 1.50, P = 0.90).Conclusion
Hyperoxemia in the first 24 hours of ICU admission after a moderate-to-severe TBI is not predictive of 6-month mortality. 相似文献5.

This study compares independent living outcomes in persons with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and spinal cord injury (SCI). Both injuries represent life-altering events that are known to have a negative impact on independent living and are predominantly experienced by members of the same demographic group. However, the types of resultant impairments and disabilities experienced by the two populations differ substantially. The TBI participants were recruited consecutively from Canada's largest tertiary care trauma centre and followed prospectively for four years. The SCI participants were recruited via a mailed survey to members of a provincial branch of the Canadian Paraplegic Association. Independent living outcomes were measured using DeJong and Hughes' (1982) classification system of productivity status, the Reintegration to Normal Living Index, and questions on assistance from environmental supports in the form of wheelchair use and paid/unpaid personal assistance. The TBI group was found to be significantly more productive, have higher levels of satisfaction with their current experience of community integration, and use fewer environmental supports than their SCI counterparts (P相似文献

Objective
To examine racial differences in employment status and occupational status 1 year after a traumatic brain injury (TBI).Design
Retrospective study.Setting
Longitudinal dataset of the Traumatic Brain Injury Model Systems national database.Participants
Subjects with primarily moderate to severe TBI (3468 whites vs 1791 minorities) hospitalized between 1989 and 2005.Interventions
Not applicable.Main Outcome Measures
Employment status (competitively employed or unemployed) and occupational status (professional/managerial, skilled, or manual labor) at 1 year postinjury.Results
Race and/or ethnicity has a significant effect on employment status at 1 year postinjury (=58.23, P<.001), after adjusting for preinjury employment status, sex, Disability Rating Scale at discharge, marital status, cause of injury, age, and education. The adjusted odds of being unemployed versus competitively employed are 2.17 times (95% confidence interval, 1.78-2.65) greater for minorities than for whites. Race and ethnicity does not have a significant effect on occupational status at 1 year postinjury.Conclusions
With this empirical evidence supporting racial differences in employment outcomes between minorities and whites at 1 year postinjury, priority should be given to tailoring interventions to maximize minority survivors' work-related productivity. 相似文献8.

OBJECTIVES: To examine injury characteristics, demographics, and discharge disposition after traumatic brain injury of violent or nonviolent cause. DESIGN: Cohort study. SETTING: Level I trauma center. PARTICIPANTS: Patients (N=1807) admitted with a Head Abbreviated Injury Score (AIS) of 2 or more over a 2-year period. INTERVENTIONS: Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Injury cause was classified as violent or nonviolent. Discharge disposition was classified as home, inpatient rehabilitation, skilled nursing facility (SNF), and other. RESULTS: The violence group was more likely to be male, to include individuals from diverse racial groups, to have an alcohol level above the legal limit, to have a more severe Head AIS, and to have Medicaid funding and equal access to inpatient rehabilitation compared with the nonviolence group. The violence group, though, was more likely to be discharged to home than to inpatient rehabilitation and more likely to be discharged to inpatient rehabilitation than to an SNF. The nonviolence group had a longer acute care length of stay and a higher rate of injuries to other body systems. CONCLUSIONS: People with violence-related injuries often present unique rehabilitation challenges. After accounting for injury severity and demographics, there was no evidence of bias against the violently injured in gaining access to inpatient rehabilitation services. 相似文献

Alcohol and drug use have been shown to contribute to the onset of traumatic spinal cord injury and to be a marker for later onset substance abuse issues. Admission toxicology (drug and alcohol) screens were collected from 87 consecutive rehabilitation medicine patients with a diagnosis of acute traumatic spinal cord injury. Forty-six patients (53%) presented with positive screens (44% alcohol only, 30% drug only, 26% both). Seventy-five percent of those with positive alcohol screens met state criteria for alcohol intoxication (blood alcohol level, > or =0.08 mg/dl). Compared with individuals with negative screens, those with positive screens were significantly (P < 0.05) younger and unmarried. Compared with nonviolence-related spinal cord injury, patients with violence-related spinal cord injury (gunshot wound and assault) were significantly (P < 0.01) more likely to have positive admission toxicology screens (76% v 41%), drug screens (62% v 14%), and intoxication screens (72% v 34%). Rehabilitation outcome comparisons between those with positive and negative screens revealed similar length of stay, admission and discharge Functional Independence Measure (FIM) scores, FIM change scores, and FIM efficiency scores. This study has important implications with regard to substance abuse issues and their impact on traumatic spinal cord injury outcome, which may assist in better targeting prevention. 相似文献

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a significant concern in the veteran population, and the Department of Veteran Affairs (VA) has devoted substantial healthcare resources to the rehabilitation of veterans with TBI. Evaluating the outcomes of these rehabilitation activities requires measuring whether they meaningfully improve veterans' lives, especially with regard to community and vocational participation, which are strongly linked to perceived quality of life. In January 2010, the VA Rehabilitation Research and Development Service convened an invitational conference focused on outcome measurement in rehabilitation with a specific focus on veterans' community and vocational participation. This article reports on the working group, addressing the issues of conceptualizing and operationalizing such participation outcome measures for veterans with TBI; we discuss conceptual models of participation, review participation subdomains and their instruments of measurement, and identify current research issues and needs. Two avenues are identified for advancing participation measurement in veterans with TBI. First, we describe suggestions to facilitate the immediate implementation of participation measurement into TBI clinical practice and rehabilitation (cont) research within the VA healthcare system. Second, we describe recommendations for future VA research funding initiatives specific to improving the measurement of participation in veterans with TBI. 相似文献

Objective: This research examined the long-term outcomes of rehabilitation patients with moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI).
Design: Retrospective cohort study.
Setting and subjects: We examined consecutive records of persons with moderate to severe traumatic brain injury who were discharged from a large rehabilitation hospital in Pennsylvania from 1973 to 1989. We interviewed consenting participants (n = 306) up to 24 years post-injury.
Main outcome measures: Self-rated health, activity limitations, employment, living arrangements, marital status, Community Integration Questionnaire, and use of rehabilitation services.
Results: Participants were most limited in activities such as managing money and shopping. Twenty-nine per cent of our participants were working full time. There were significant relationships between activity limitations and residual cognitive impairment at follow-up. Self-rated health was correlated with most instrumental activities of daily living.
Conclusion: Our findings document health and function in a large post acute TBI population and implications for rehabilitation are discussed. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To characterize financial and vocational outcomes among persons with traumatic brain injury (TBI) in terms of employment status, earned and private income, and public assistance received at the time of injury and at 1 year after injury. DESIGN: Nonexperimental, longitudinal study. SETTING: Inpatient TBI rehabilitation unit and participants' community of residence. PARTICIPANTS: Thirty-five persons with new TBI from 1 national Traumatic Brain Injury Model Systems center. INTERVENTIONS: Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Employment status, earned and private monthly income, and public assistance received monthly at the time of injury and at 1-year follow-up. RESULTS: From the time of injury until 1-year follow-up, the percentage of persons employed decreased from 69% to 31%; the percentage unemployed increased from 11% to 49%; the average earned monthly income declined 51% (from US dollars 1,491 to US dollars 726); and the mean total public assistance received per month increased 275% (from US dollars 153 to US dollars 421). CONCLUSION: Assuming that this study sample is representative of national statistics for TBI, during the first year after injury, TBI is associated with an estimated $642 million in lost wages, US dollars 96 million in lost income taxes, and US dollars 353 million in increased public assistance. 相似文献

Purpose.?To determine outcomes for persons with traumatic brain injury (TBI) in terms of employment status, income and public assistance received at 2 years after injury.Method.?This study was part of a non-experimental, longitudinal survey. Participants included 49 persons with new TBI from one US national Traumatic Brain Injury Model Systems centre. Main outcome measures included employment status, earned monthly income and monthly income from public sources, at the time of injury and at 2-years follow-up.Results.?At 2-year follow-up, individuals with TBI reported higher levels of employment and earned income than was previously reported for 1-year post-injury, but continued to experience declines relative to pre-injury baseline. Frequency and amount of major public agency payments continued to be increased relative to baseline.Conclusions.?The costs associated with brain injury remain high for individuals, families and society, as those with TBI move into the more chronic phase of recovery. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To compare the performance of 3 severity of illness (SOI) indices--the Comprehensive Severity Index (CSI), All Patient Refined Diagnosis Related Groups Severity of Illness, case-mix group (CMG)--and 5 well-known neurologic parameters, as measures of medical complexity. DESIGN: Retrospective chart review. SETTING: Inpatient rehabilitation center within a level I trauma center. PARTICIPANTS: Consecutive traumatic brain injury (TBI) admissions (N=212). INTERVENTION: Acute inpatient TBI rehabilitation. CSI and neurologic parameters were scored by chart extraction. SOI was based on diagnosis codes by using 3M PC Grouper software, version 15. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Adjusted R 2 was used to predict rehabilitation charges as a proxy of medical complexity. RESULTS: The highest adjusted R 2 values for single variables predicting charges were: CMG .349, CSI .293, duration of posttraumatic amnesia .260. Adjusted R 2 values for the CMG combined with the CSI, 5 neurologic parameters, and SOI to predict charges were .446, .431, and .365, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The CMG was the best single predictor of rehabilitation charges for TBI. Predictive ability was better when the CMG was combined with the CSI or a combination of the 5 neurologic parameters. A severity index based on objective clinical findings rather than diagnostic codes may have distinct advantages for rehabilitation outcome studies and reimbursement methodology. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To test the effectiveness of a neuropsychologic rehabilitation program consisting of psychotherapy and cognitive remediation in the treatment of the affective and neuropsychologic sequelae of mild-spectrum traumatic brain injury (TBI). DESIGN: Single-blind randomized, wait-listed controlled trial, with repeated measures and multiple baselines. SETTING: Outpatient clinic in northern New Jersey. PARTICIPANTS: Twenty persons with persisting complaints after mild and moderate TBI (11 in treatment group, 9 controls). INTERVENTIONS: The experimental group received both 50 minutes of individual cognitive-behavioral psychotherapy and 50 minutes of individual cognitive remediation, 3 times a week for 11 weeks. The control group was wait-listed and received treatment after conclusion of follow-up. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Symptom Check List-90R General Symptom Index, plus scales of depression, anxiety, coping, attention, and neuropsychologic functioning. RESULTS: Compared with the control group, the treatment group showed significantly improved emotional functioning, including lessened anxiety and depression. Most significant improvements in emotional distress were noted at 1 month and 3 months posttreatment. Performance on a measure of divided auditory attention also improved, but no changes were noted in community integration scores. CONCLUSIONS: Cognitive behavioral psychotherapy and cognitive remediation appear to diminish psychologic distress and improve cognitive functioning among community-living persons with mild and moderate TBI. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To examine the association between time from injury to rehabilitation admission and outcomes for patients with traumatic brain injuries (TBIs). DESIGN: Retrospective chart review. SETTING: One hundred-bed inpatient rehabilitation facility with a 20-bed brain injury unit. PARTICIPANTS: Patients with TBIs discharged from initial inpatient rehabilitation between 2003 and 2004 (N=158). INTERVENTIONS: Not applicable. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Outcomes examined were functional independence at discharge (motor, cognitive, total FIM scores), rehabilitation length of stay (LOS), and rehabilitation cost. RESULTS: Significant linear trends were observed for time to admission and motor FIM scores, total FIM scores, rehabilitation LOS, and cost. All linear regression models contained time to admission as a significant predictor of rehabilitation outcomes. Over half of the variability in outcomes was explained by predictors including time to admission and case-mix group or individual FIM scores with the exception of discharge motor FIM score, for which only 45% of the variability was explained. CONCLUSIONS: Patients who progress to rehabilitation earlier do better functionally and have lower costs and shorter LOSs. Furthermore, the time to rehabilitation admission is easily calculated and could be used by rehabilitation providers in adjunct with admission FIM scores to estimate resource utilization. 相似文献
