Overview
Brief Summary
Patients with traumatic brain injury are likely to present with cognitive, psychological, emotional and behavioral problems during different periods, all of which affect patients' life quality seriously. The aim of this study was to assess cognitive and psychosocial outcome in patients with mild traumatic brain injury, and to determine the risk factors associated with cognitive and psychological outcome. Mini-mental state examination (MMSE), activities of daily living scale (ADL), the Hospital Anxiety Depression Scale (HADS) and mental health symptom checklist (SCL-90) were used to assess the cognitive performance and psychological outcomes in 360 patients with mild traumatic brain injury. Chi-square, Fisher's exact tests and Logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the risk factors.

Primary Outcomes
Mini-Mental State Examination
Time Frame: 6 months
MMSE includes seven factors, namely: the time orientation factor (5 points), place orientation (5 points), immediate memory (3 points), short-term memory (3 points), calculation capabilities (5 points), verbal expression, naming and repetition (4 points), speech reading and understanding (4 points), graphic depiction (1 points). The scales for the description of cognitive function impairment were grouped into three levels of education: illiteracy (17 points), primary school (20 points) and middle school (24 points). The one with score below average was considered with cognitive function impairment.
Secondary Outcomes
- Activity of daily living scale(6 months)
