简要总结
The objective of the protocol is to pursue the long-term follow-up of a large cohort of severe traumatic brain injury patients. This outcome is to be described in terms of activity, participation, quality of life, socio-professional outcome, economical consequences and impact on caregivers, and in relation to health care provision.
Secondary objectives are to measure the impact on outcome of several predictive factors; to evaluate evolution of patients since the last (four-year) evaluation.
详细描述
This work represents a part of a larger collaborative prospective study called PariS-TBI (Severe Traumatic Brain Injury in the Parisian area) financed by the French National Authority for Health. The Paris-TBI study was undertaken in 2004, to provide epidemiological data. Patients aged 15 or more were included if they had sustained a severe TBI in the Parisian area during a 20-months period (2005-2007), defined by an initial Coma Glasgow Score (GCS) of 8 or less. Data from patients' demographics, injury characteristics, acute and post acute phase were collected prospectively. A total of 504 patients were included, of which 257 were alive at the time of this study. Patients (n = 134) were evaluated through a phone interview at one year post traumatism, and had a face-to-face evaluation at four years post-injury (n = 147).
Investigations of the present work will be undertaken at eight years after the injury. Patients of the initial cohort will be contacted through post and phone call. Information about this follow up study will be given orally and through written form. Informed consent of patient or legal advisor will be obtained before setting an appointment for the evaluation.
Evaluation will take place either in the patient's place of living, or in a clinical setting in the hospitals Broussais, Paris, France or Raymond Poincaré, Garches, France, according to the patient's choice.
A trained neuropsychologist will lead the evaluations, during an interview with the patient and the informal caregiver, defined as the person (family member or friend), most responsible for day-to-day decision making and care for the patient. If a patient cannot attend the interview, a short questionnaire will be proposed to him by the neuropsychologist by phone.
Demographic and pre-traumatism clinical data will be available from the initial study, as well as data on type and severity of traumatism, and on evolution during acute care. Data from the one-year and the four-year assessments will be available.
