This systematic review evaluated the effectiveness of psychological interventions for prolonged post-concussion symptoms lasting more than 12 months after mild traumatic brain injury. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy showed the strongest evidence for improving anxiety, anger, and mental well-being, though the overall evidence base remains preliminary and requires more rigorous research.
This study evaluated the feasibility and utility of ImPACT-QT, a brief iPad-based cognitive screening tool, in acutely hospitalized trauma patients with mild TBI. The test was completed in ~9 minutes with high usability, and memory scores significantly differentiated mTBI patients from non-TBI controls, suggesting potential clinical utility for rapid bedside cognitive assessment.
This systematic review and meta-analysis synthesized data from observational studies (2000-2024) to assess post-traumatic headache (PTH) prevalence in TBI patients, finding a pooled prevalence of 49.3%. Subgroup analyses revealed variations across measurement tools and study characteristics, with interviews reporting higher prevalence rates than other assessment methods.
This clinical case describes a 31-year-old man who developed cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) after a moderate traumatic brain injury from a motorbike accident, despite the absence of severe skull fracture. Early detection via CT venography and conservative management without anticoagulation led to partial thrombus resolution and neurological recovery by discharge.
This study examined 208 adults to determine whether fatigue, sleep disruption, and sex differences uniquely predict post-concussion symptom severity in mild TBI patients compared to trauma controls and healthy controls. Female sex and elevated fatigue independently predicted post-concussion symptoms only in the mTBI group, while psychological status was the primary predictor across all groups.
