Haley Veterans' Hospital, Tampa, Florida (Drs Silva and Fox); Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Neurosciences, University of South Florida, Tampa, Florida; Department of Internal Medicine (Division of Pulmonary, Critical Care & Sleep Medicine), University of South Florida, Tampa, Florida (Drs Silva and Nakase-Richardson); Research Methodology and Biostatistics Core, Office of Research, University of South Florida, Tampa, Florida (Klocksieben); Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, University of Washington School of Medicine, Seattle, Washington (Dr Hoffman); and Defense Health Agency Traumatic Brain Injury Center of Excellence, James A. Haley Veterans' Hospital, Tampa, Florida, and Research Service, James A. Haley Veterans' Hospital, Tampa, Florida (Dr Nakase-Richardson).

Objective: To examine, among persons discharged from inpatient rehabilitation for traumatic brain injury (TBI), the degree to which pre-TBI factors were associated with post-TBI hospitalization for psychiatric reasons. The authors hypothesized that pre-TBI psychiatric hospitalization and other pre-TBI mental health treatment would predict post-TBI psychiatric hospitalization following rehabilitation discharge, up to 5 years post-TBI.

Setting: Five Veterans Affairs Polytrauma Rehabilitation Centers.

Few studies have examined long-term mortality following traumatic brain injury (TBI) in a military population. This is a secondary analysis of a prospective, longitudinal study that examines long-term mortality (up to 10 years) post-TBI, including analyses of life expectancy, causes of death, and risk factors for death in service members and veterans (SM/V) who survived the acute TBI and inpatient rehabilitation. Among 922 participants in the study, the mortality rate was 8.

Article Synopsis
  • The study assesses chronic pain prevalence in individuals with traumatic brain injury (TBI), finding that about 60% experience chronic pain at some point.
  • It compares three groups: those with current chronic pain, past chronic pain, and no chronic pain, noting that current pain is associated with worse functional outcomes.
  • The results highlight the need for more effective pain management and the inclusion of pain metrics in future research related to TBI.

Study Objectives: To explore the relationship between polysomnography-derived respiratory indices and chronic pain status among individuals following traumatic brain injury (TBI).

Methods: Participants (n = 66) with moderate to severe TBI underwent polysomnography during inpatient acute rehabilitation and their chronic pain status was assessed at 1- to 2-year follow-up as part of the TBI Model Systems Pain Collaborative Study. Pairwise comparisons across pain cohorts (ie, chronic pain, no history of pain) were made to explore differences on polysomnography indices.

Objective: Blast related characteristics may contribute to the diversity of findings on whether mild traumatic brain injury sustained during war zone deployment has lasting cognitive effects. This study aims to evaluate whether a history of blast exposure at close proximity, defined as exposure within 30 feet, has long-term or lasting influences on cognitive outcomes among current and former military personnel.

Method: One hundred participants were assigned to one of three groups based on a self-report history of blast exposure during combat deployments: 47 close blast, 14 non-close blast, and 39 comparison participants without blast exposure.
