Interventions to support the mental health of family carers of children with brain injury in low and middle income countries: a scoping review.

Aim: To review the international evidence base on interventions to support the mental health of family carers of children with brain injuries in low and middle income countries (LMIC).

Methods: Searches were conducted with five electronic databases (Pubmed, Web of Science, Embase, PsycINFO, CINAHL) using search terms related to "family carers", "brain injury", "children" and "low and middle income countries". Studies were independently screened using predetermined eligibility criteria by two authors.

Attention Training After Moderate-to-Severe Traumatic Brain Injury in Adults: A Systematic Review.

Objective: To determine the extent and efficacy of attentional training as a form of neuropsychological rehabilitation to ameliorate attention deficits in adults with moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury.

Data Sources: Articles published in Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, Cochrane Library, PubMed, PsycINFO, Scopus, and Web of Science were searched between January 17, and February 27, 2021.

Study Selection: Two reviewers blindly assessed studies for eligibility according to the following criteria: any article evaluating the efficacy of any type of behavioral intervention that targeted attention (by means of cognitive rehabilitative, psychoeducational, or neuropsychological strategies, at either an individual or group level) in adults who had sustained a formally documented moderate-to-severe traumatic brain injury.

Implementing neuropsychological rehabilitation following severe traumatic brain injury in a low-to-middle income country: a case report.

Introduction: TBI incidence and distribution are largely overrepresented in low- to middle-income countries (LMICs), such as South Africa (SA), with substantial associated human and financial costs. However, access to rehabilitation for the public is severely limited and not standard practice in SA. Given this background, studies demonstrating the successful implementation of neuropsychological rehabilitation in a LMIC setting are important.

Ethical issues in clinical neuropsychology: International diversity perspectives.

Objective: Much of the information about the ethical practice of clinical neuropsychology has focused on North America. Additionally, of the scholarly publications on the intersection of ethical issues and cultural diversity practices in neuropsychology, most have focused on North America. The extent to which practitioners in other parts of the world are aware of, and find useful, such information is largely unknown.
