Objective: To evaluate the effect of family attendance at inpatient rehabilitation therapy sessions on traumatic brain injury (TBI) patient outcomes at discharge and up to 9 months postdischarge.
Design: Propensity score methods are applied to the TBI Practice-Based Evidence database, a database consisting of multisite, prospective, longitudinal, and observational data.
Setting: Nine inpatient rehabilitation centers in the United States.
Objective: To evaluate the effect of providing a greater percentage of therapy as contextualized treatment on acute traumatic brain injury (TBI) rehabilitation outcomes.
Design: Propensity score methods are applied to the TBI Practice-Based Evidence (TBI-PBE) database, a database consisting of multi-site, prospective, longitudinal observational data.
Setting: Acute inpatient rehabilitation.
Objective: To use causal inference methods to determine if receipt of a greater proportion of inpatient rehabilitation treatment focused on higher level functions, for example, executive functions, ambulating over uneven surfaces (advanced therapy [AdvTx]), results in better rehabilitation outcomes.
Design: A cohort study using propensity score methods applied to the traumatic brain injury practice-based evidence (TBI-PBE) database, a database consisting of multisite, prospective, longitudinal observational data.
Setting: Acute inpatient rehabilitation facilities.
