本探索性研究旨在增加对爆炸相关轻度创伤性脑损伤（mTBI）患者神经心理测试表现的了解。影响他们冲击油测试表现的两个变量是mTBI症状的存在和创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）史。45名爆炸后mTBI的士兵完成了一系列神经心理测试，其中27人有持久的mTBI症状，18人没有。45人中有17人符合PTSD的标准。节奏性听觉连续加法测试（Frencham, Fox, & Mayberry, 2005; Spreen & Strauss, 1998）是主要的结果测量。双面的。2样本t检验用于比较各组之间的得分。mTBI症状的存在不影响测试性能。此外，有创伤后应激障碍和没有创伤后应激障碍的士兵之间没有显著差异。标准的神经心理学评估可能不会增加对mTBI症状相关损害的理解。指出了这一领域的进一步研究。
This exploratory study was conducted to increase understanding of neuropsychological test performance in those with blast-related mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). The two variables of interest for their impact oil test performance were presence of mTBI symptoms and history of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Forty-five soldiers postblast mTBI, 27 with enduring mTBI symptoms and 18 without, completed a series of neuropsychological tests. Seventeen of the 45 met criteria for PTSD. The Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test (Frencham, Fox, & Mayberry. 2005; Spreen & Strauss, 1998) was the primary Outcome Measure. Two-sided. 2-sample t tests were used to compare scores between groups of interest. Presence of mTBI symptoms did not impact test performance. In addition, no significant differences between soldiers with and without PTSD were identified. Standard neuropsychological assessment may not increase understanding about impairment associated with mTBI symptoms. Further research in this area is indicated.
