Predictors of cognitive gains during inpatient rehabilitation for older adults with traumatic brain injury.

Introduction: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) among older adults is increasing and can affect cognition. To effectively meet the rehabilitation needs of older adults, a clearer picture is needed of patient-, clinical-, and facility-level characteristics that affect cognitive recovery during inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) stays.

Objective: To identify patient, clinical, and facility factors associated with cognitive recovery among older adults with TBI who received IRF care.

Inpatient rehabilitation facility discharge destination among younger adults with traumatic brain injury: differences by race and ethnicity.

Objective: : To determine the association of race and ethnicity with discharge destination among patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) receiving inpatient rehabilitation facility (IRF) care.

Design: Secondary analysis using Uniform Data System for Medical Rehabilitation data.

Methods: : Patients ( = 99,614) diagnosed with TBI, age 18-64, admitted for IRF care between 2002 and 2018.
