Current Research Studies: Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)

In addition to research done through the Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) Model System of Care, the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine is currently conducting the following TBI studies:

• TBI Care: The Effectiveness of Collaborative Care versus Usual Care for Pain after Traumatic Brain Injury

TBI Care: The Effectiveness of Collaborative Care versus Usual Care for Pain after Traumatic Brain Injury

The TBI Care study is comparing the effectiveness of Collaborative Care to Usual Care for decreasing pain interference in adults with TBI and chronic pain, including headache. We will also examine the impact of Collaborative Care versus Usual Care for symptoms that commonly co-occur with pain including depression, anxiety, and sleep. We are also interested in whether treatment changes satisfaction with care, community participation and how medical care is used. Collaborative Care is a well-established model for healthcare delivery, but has not been adequately tested for pain management in persons with TBI.
