The clinical and cost-effectiveness of sertraline in preventing depression in adults following a traumatic brain injury (STOP-D): study protocol for a multi-centre randomised controlled trial
BACKGROUND: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a common presentation in emergency departments worldwide. Approximately 1.4 million adults present with TBI in England and Wales annually. Post-TBI depression (PTD) is a common neuropsychiatric consequence, affecting up to 50% of patients within two years, and is associated with adverse functional outcomes. PTD remains underdiagnosed and undertreated. Sertraline, […]
A sensor-based gait measure for identifying invalid performance in simulated mTBI: an experimental proof of concept
CONCLUSIONS: Findings offer preliminary support for the ability of an automated gait-based measure to capture invalid performance and inform investigations regarding effort. These experimental findings represent a first step in exploring the potential clinical utility of the BKG as a measure of performance validity.
The Relationship of Prior Concussion and Contact Sport Exposure With Cortical Macro and Microstructure
Changes in cortical gray matter are a key feature of neurodegenerative diseases that have been linked with concussion and repetitive head impacts (RHIs). Prior evidence implicates prior concussion and RHI in reduced cortical thickness or volume in temporal and frontal regions, with results largely restricted to older retired contact sport athletes. Fewer studies have investigated […]
Impact of Modified Brain Injury Guideline Incorporating Neurosurgical Consultation on Resource Utilization and Follow-Up Care in Complicated Mild Traumatic Brain Injury
CONCLUSION: Implementation of a resource utilization-focused protocol at our trauma center incorporating neurosurgery consultation for patients with complicated mTBI led to higher rates of direct discharges from the ED and to home without compromising TBI-related follow-up care. Results demonstrate that adoption of a modified BIG protocol that includes neurosurgical collaboration can translate to more efficient […]
Timing of definitive fracture fixation in patients with concomitant traumatic brain injuries - A systematic review of the literature by the IMPACT group
CONCLUSIONS: Early definitive fracture fixation within 24 h should be attempted in polytrauma patients with concomitant mild TBI under specific conditions, which were previously defined by the IMPACT group. Furthermore, current evidence suggests that this approach is both safe and beneficial in a carefully selected patient population. In cases of moderate and severe TBI, decision-making […]
