[Traumatic brain injury rehabilitation - assessment of quantitative and qualitative research].

The Swedish Agency for Health Technology Assessment and Assessment of Social Services has evaluated quantitative and qualitative research regarding rehabilitation for persons with traumatic brain injury (TBI) through systematic reviews. The results indicate that specialized brain injury rehabilitation for persons with post-concussion symptoms after mild TBI results in improved health, when compared to usual care (results with low certainty according to GRADE). As few high-quality studies were identified, it was not possible to assess the effects of vocational rehabilitation, rehabilitation with case management/coordinator, residential living or specialized brain rehabilitation for persons with moderate to severe TBI. A synthesis of qualitative studies showed that persons with TBI experience insufficient coordination of health services and access to rehabilitation (results with low to moderate confidence according to CERQual).
