简要总结
Mental health problems frequently complicate recovery from mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) but are under-recognized and under-treated. Our research program aims to identify evidence-based strategies for closing this knowledge-practice gap. Building on a successful pilot trial, the reseachers will evaluate the effectiveness of a clinical practice guideline implementation tool designed to support proactive management of mental health complications after mTBI in primary care.
详细描述
Goal: To determine if a clinical practice guideline implementation tool, designed to support proactive management of mental health complications, can improve clinical outcomes from mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).
Background: Up to 1 in 4 people who sustain an mTBI develop depression or an anxiety disorder within the first 3 months. Mental health problems triple the risk of long-term disability after mTBI. However, mental health disorders after mTBI are under-detected and under-treated. Canadian clinical practice guidelines for mTBI developed by the Ontario Neurotrauma Foundation (ONF) recommend that family physicians proactively screen and initiate treatment for mental health disorders.
Aims: To evaluate the effectiveness of an implementation intervention designed to facilitate timely detection and treatment of mental health complications in primary care.
Approach: Triple-blinded (treatment provider, patient, assessor) cluster randomized controlled trial with two arms. The intervention involves collecting screening test results from patients and a complex intervention with two components: sharing the screening test results in an actionable format with their family physician and activating patients for the clinical encounter with the family physician by sharing education materials about mental health problems and treatment options after mTBI. The comparison group is usual care.
Hypotheses: The researchers hypothesize that the guideline implementation tool will be associated with lower rates of mental health complications at 26 weeks post-injury, compared to usual care.
