Development and feasibility of a Contextualized Continuum of Care (CCoC)Model for Traumatic Brain Injury survivors

The study has obtained ethical approvals from all institutional committees and will be registered under the Clinical Trials Registry of India. It follows a three-phase design: Phase 1 uses focus group discussions with healthcare professionals and semi-structured interviews with TBI survivors and caregivers to identify needs, barriers, and strategies for a Continuum of Care (CCoC) model. Phase 2 integrates these findings using a mixed-methods Delphi process and co-design workshops with experts, survivors, and caregivers to develop and refine CCoC model. Phase 3 evaluates the model’s feasibility through a longitudinal single-arm study involving 20 survivor–caregiver dyads (10 Moderate TBI survivors and their caregivers, and 10 severe TBI survivors and their caregivers) once they are medically stable in the hospital upto 6 months in community settings. Outcomes will be assessed using the RE-AIM framework, with structured follow-ups over six months. The study aims to produce  practical, and contextually relevant continuum of care model for moderate to severe TBI survivors in LMIC settings.
