Status Not yet recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) accounts for 70-90% of brain injuries, with 600 cases of mTBI per 100 000 people in the united states, but only 100-300 mTBI patients per 100 000 people receive hospital-based care. Symptoms reported immediately after injury tend to diminish over the following 10 days and are generally resolved by 3 months. However, in 15-25% of cases , problems persist, and may even worsen, at 3 months. Physical, emotional, and behavioral factors can be affected. Physical disorders include pain and fatigue. Sleep disorders are also common. Persistent symptoms can affect patient outcomes (affecting all aspects of life) and increase public healthcare costs .In a previous study (NCT03811626, Efficacy of Psychoeducation and Cognitive Rehabilitation After Mild Traumatic Brain Injury for Preventing Post-concussional Syndrome in Individuals With High Risk of Poor Prognosis: A Randomized Clinical Trial. The investigators were able to demonstrate that early multidisciplinary management improved the outcome and prognosis of patients by statistically significantly reducing the percentage of patients with Post traumatic syndrome distress at six months (6% for the treated group versus 52% for the control group, p < 0.001).

It seems important to verify that if this short-term improvement (6 months after the trauma) persists in the long term, and therefore at a distance from the end of the initially proposed rehabilitation.

Clinical Trial Description

80 mTBI patients included in the previous study (NCT03811626) will be contacted by phone and an assessment consisting of questionnaires (QOLIBRI, SF-36, Posttraumatic stress disorder Checklist Scale (PCLS ) , ProQol) will be offered to them. ;
