创伤性脑损伤后的家庭结局一直是近二十年来研究的主题。研究人员报告了来自以色列、苏格兰、丹麦、英格兰和美国的样本。文化多样性以及设计、评估方法、损伤特征和定义方面的差异导致难以得出明确的结论。研究结果显示,病人的情绪及人格困扰程度与家庭困扰程度相关,且较身体残疾更为显著。不可否认,长期的伤害后遗症对家庭有着长期的负面影响。不幸的是,几乎没有做什么来确定17岁以下的患者,兄弟姐妹和不太严重的伤害的家庭结局的性质。最近的进展,包括开发有效的测量工具,通过共识建立的定义,以及多中心合作研究网络是有希望的,并有助于即将取得进展的可能性。
Family outcome following traumatic brain injury has been the subject of investigation for nearly two decades. Researchers have reported on samples from Israel, Scotland, Denmark, England, and the United States. Cultural diversity as well as differences in design, assessment methods, injury characteristics, and definitions have contributed to difficulties establishing definitive conclusions. Findings indicate that patients' levels of emotional and personality disturbances are associated with levels of family disturbance, and are relatively more significant than physical disability. Undeniably, the long-term sequelae of injury have a long-term negative impact on families. Unfortunately, little has been done to establish the nature of family outcomes for patients younger than age 17, siblings, and less than severe injuries. Recent advances including development of valid measurement tools, definitions established through consensus, and multi-center collaborative research networks are promising and contribute to the likelihood of imminent progress.
