Brain Injury Inpatient Educational Intervention for Families and Caregivers — BIIG-FACS  

Traumatic Brain Injury Clinical Trial

Official title:
Brain Injury Inpatient Educational Intervention for Families and Caregivers (a Research Project Within the Traumatic Brain Injury Model System)

Clinical Trial Summary

The Brain Injury Inpatient Guide for Families and Caregivers (BIIG-FACS) is a comprehensive intervention to meet the needs of family members and significant others of patients who are undergoing acute, inpatient brain injury rehabilitation.

Clinical Trial Description

The Brain Injury Inpatient Guide for Families and Caregivers (BIIG-FACS), developed by J. Niemeier and J. Kreutzer, is a comprehensive intervention to meet the needs of family members and significant others of patients who are undergoing acute brain injury rehabilitation. Program development was guided by considerable clinical experience, research review, and solicited consumer feedback.

The intervention has been manualized to facilitate efficient and effective administration. Now, a rigorous investigation involving randomized assignment to treatment and control groups is needed to empirically examine outcomes. Helping family members to cope more effectively has the potential to improve outcomes for persons with ABI. Strengthening families can enable persons with ABI to live more independently, achieve greater community integration, and live healthier lives. The investigation serves as a logical next step forward in advancing our understanding of standardized interventions designed to serve the family unit. ;
