Team brain injury: evaluation
Abstract: "Team Brain Injury" or "Team BI" is a new approach to brain injury rehabilitation developed by the faculty of the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation to address a changing service delivery system characterized by shorter inpatient length of stays. Team BI seeks to manage the rehabilitation process from acute rehabilitation through long-term living based on a holistic view of the individual and using a coordinated team approach. Team BI educates patients and family via information customized to the needs and abilities of the learner, available in amounts and formats responsive to the stage of adaptation, and provided in the context of a long-term relationship. This demonstration project evaluates the... more

The Dynamics of Change in Outcomes over the First Five Years Following Traumatic Brain Injury
Abstract: This study employs a cross-sequential design to compare samples of persons with traumatic brain injuries, one to five years post-discharge from rehabilitation, with a matched group of persons with traumatic spinal cord injuries. Changes in outcomes over this period will be examined. The design will allow testing of the uniqueness of dynamic outcomes to persons with traumatic brain injury, and of the extent to which patterns of change are individual or developmental. ... more

Incidence, Impact and Causes of Sleep Dysfunction after Traumatic Brain Injury
Abstract: Sleep difficulties are relatively common following brain injury. However, there has been only limited study of the effects of sleep difficulties on long-term outcomes. This longitudinal study tracks sleep difficulties during inpatient rehabilitation and at one year post-injury, with the latter compared to sleep difficulties of friend controls. Predictive factors and associations with long-term outcomes are being investigated. Commonly used medications for improving sleep will be identified... more

Effectiveness of the SASSI –3 in Screening for Substance Abuse Among Persons with Traumatic Brain Injury
Abstract: The purpose of the current study is to assess the validity of a screening instrument widely used in addictions treatment (the Substance Abuse Subtle Screening Inventory or "SASSI-3" 2), when applied to adults with recent brain injuries. This instrument was developed using empirical methods and contains scales that are subtle indicators of substance abuse. The SASSIÂ’s accuracy will be based on data collected from 140 subjects recruited during acute rehabilitation, and the accuracy of its decision rules evaluated via comparison with the determination of a clinician trained in chemical dependency/abuse assessment... more

Subjective Well-being in the First Two Years Following Traumatic Brain Injury
Abstract: Prospective, longitudinal study of patients with TBI followed at one and two years post-injury. In a single center study stepwise multiple regressions predicted statistically significant, but small proportions of variance. This study proposes to replicate these findings using the TBI Model Systems dataset. Univariate regression models will be calculated first. Those variables that account for at least 1% of variance will be included in subsequent stepwise linear regression models... more

Outcomes and Quality of Life Associated with Alternative Pathways for Post-acute Management of Severe TBI: Skilled Nursing, Subacute Rehabilitation, and Home Care Versus Comprehensive Acute Inpatient Rehabilitation
Abstract: Much has been learned about the functional outcome for those that survive traumatic brain injury (TBI) and receive inpatient rehabilitation. However, this is a select group of persons with TBI. Individuals who receive inpatient rehabilitation differ from those who have not by the fact that they have come to a rehabilitation setting. Although these groups are not equal, comparisons are needed to learn more about the needs and outcomes of those who do not receive inpatient rehabilitation. This study investigates the outcomes and quality of life (QOL) associated with alternative pathways for post-acute management of severe TBI, including skilled nursing, subacute rehabilitation, and home care versus acute inpatient rehabilitation. ... more
