Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is a common diagnosis and approximately one third of mTBI patients experience variety cognitive, emotional, psychosocial, behavioral post-concussion symptoms. When cluster these symptoms persists for more than 3 months they are often classified as syndrome (PCS). The objective this study was to determine prevalence rates, risk factors, functional outcome associated with PCS 6 after mTBI, applying divergent classification methods. Follow-up questionnaires at...
The aim of this study was to assess the occurrence post-concussion symptoms and syndrome (PCS) in a large cohort patients after complicated uncomplicated mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) at three six months post-injury. Patients were included through prospective study: Collaborative European NeuroTrauma Effectiveness Research (CENTER-TBI). enrolled with mTBI (Glasgow Coma Scale 13–15) further differentiated into based on presence or absence computed tomography abnormalities, respectively....
Objectives: To evaluate the frequency of post-concussion symptoms and prevalence risk factors syndrome (PCS) in general population, investigate association between Rivermead Post-Concussion Symptoms Questionnaire (RPQ) self-perceived health, differences three European countries.Methods: A web-based survey including RPQ EQ-5D was conducted among representative samples countries.Results: total 11,759 respondents completed questionnaire. The most frequently reported symptom fatigue (49.9%)....
The utility-weighted modified Rankin Scale (UW-mRS) has been proposed as a new patient-centered primary outcome in stroke trials. We aimed to describe utility weights for the mRS health states and evaluate statistical efficiency of UW-mRS detect treatment effects intervention trials.We used data 500 patients enrolled MR CLEAN (Multicenter Randomized Clinical Trial Endovascular Treatment Acute Ischemic Stroke Netherlands). Utility values were elicited from EuroQol Group 5-Dimension...
The majority of traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are categorized as mild, according to a baseline Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score 13-15. Prognostic models that were developed predict functional outcome and persistent post-concussive symptoms (PPCS) after mild TBI have rarely been externally validated. We aimed validate predicting 3-12-month Outcome Extended (GOSE) or PPCS in adults with TBI. analyzed data from the Collaborative European NeuroTrauma Effectiveness Research Traumatic Brain Injury...
The objective of this study was to provide a comprehensive examination the relation complicated and uncomplicated mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) with multidimensional outcomes at three- six-months after TBI. We analyzed data from Collaborative European NeuroTrauma Effectiveness Research (CENTER-TBI) research project. Patients mTBI (Glasgow Coma scale (GCS) score 13-15) enrolled in were differentiated into two groups based on computed tomography (CT) findings: (presence any intracranial...
BackgroundThis study aimed to estimate the cost-effectiveness of extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR) for in-hospital cardiac arrest treatment.MethodsA decision tree and Markov model were constructed based on current literature. The was conditional age, Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) sex. Three treatment strategies considered: ECPR patients with an Age-Combined (ACCI) below different thresholds (2–4), everyone (EALL), no one (NE). Cost-effectiveness assessed costs per...
Abstract It’s increasingly recognized that the evaluative space of economic evaluations in health and social care needs to be broadened instruments measuring well-being are required. A generic measure comprehensively capturing all relevant domains adult population is not available. The aim describe development such an instrument, 10-item Well-being instrument (WiX), report findings from a content validation study. draft version was based on available pursuing same aim, comprehensive...
Economic evaluations of interventions in health and social care require outcome measures that capture their full benefits, including those beyond health. This study aimed to assess construct validity, test-retest reliability, responsiveness the newly developed 10-item Well-being instrument (WiX).
Post-concussion symptoms (PCS) are often reported as consequences of mild and moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI), but these not well documented in severe TBI. There is a lack agreement to which factors covariates affect the occurrence, frequency, intensity PCS among TBI severity groups. The present study therefore aims examine association between sociodemographic, premorbid, injury-related PCS. A total 1391 individuals (65% male) from CENTER-TBI were included analyses. frequency (number...
The Quality of Life after Traumatic Brain Injury (QOLIBRI) instrument is an internationally validated patient-reported outcome measure for assessing disease-specific health-related quality life (HRQoL) in individuals traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, no reference values general populations are available yet use clinical practice and research the field TBI. aim present study was, therefore, to establish these United Kingdom (UK) Netherlands (NL). For this purpose, online survey with a...
Abstract Background Fatigue is one of the most commonly reported subjective symptoms following traumatic brain injury (TBI). The aims were to assess frequency fatigue over first 6 months after TBI, and examine whether changes could be predicted by demographic characteristics, severity comorbidities. Methods Patients with acute TBI admitted 65 trauma centers enrolled in study Collaborative European NeuroTrauma Effectiveness Research (CENTER-TBI). Subjective was measured single item on...
Abstract Purpose Informal care constitutes an important part of the total for people with dementia. Therefore, impact syndrome on their caregivers as well that health and social services dementia should be considered. This study investigated convergent clinical validity CarerQol instrument, which measures values providing informal care, in a multi-country sample Methods Cross-sectional data from 451 respondents eight European countries, collected by Actifcare project, were evaluated....
Post-concussion syndrome (PCS) occurs following mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). Patients with mTBI are often assessed using self-report instruments that rely on perception of current symptoms compared to how they felt and functioned pre-injury. The objective was examine reliability patients' post-injury reporting their pre-injury symptoms.We included two control groups (trauma patients without history healthy controls) who were recruited at an outpatient surgical clinic among the working...
The aim of this paper was to evaluate the prevalence postconcussive symptoms and their relation health-related quality life (HRQOL) in pediatric adolescent patients with mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) who received head CT imaging during initial assessment.
Abstract Purpose The Quality of Life after Brain Injury overall scale (QOLIBRI-OS) measures health-related quality life (HRQoL) traumatic brain injury (TBI). aim this study was to derive value sets for the QOLIBRI-OS in three European countries, which will allow calculation utility scores TBI health states. Methods A set derived by using discrete choice experiments (DCEs) and visual analogue scales (VAS) general population samples from Netherlands, United Kingdom Italy. three-stage procedure...
To investigate an innovative new setting for the improvement of ultrasound ergonomics. Musculoskeletal disorders pose a great problem obstetric departments. Although many adjustments equipment have been applied, prevalence musculoskeletal complaints among sonographers remains high. A main cause appears to be right arm position that requires extensive muscle effort. We propose approach by developing ‘extended arm’ in order change basic sonographer thereby creating frontal working area. The...
