OBJECTIVE
To estimate the prevalence of long-term disability associated with traumatic brain injury (TBI) in the civilian population of the United States.
METHODS
We first estimated how many people experienced long-term disability from TBI each year in the past 70 years. Then, accounting for the increased mortality among TBI survivors, we estimated their life expectancy and calculated how many were expected to be alive in 2005.
RESULTS
An estimated 1.1% of the US civilian population or 3.17 million people (95% CI: 3.02-3.32 million) were living with a long-term disability from TBI at the beginning of 2005. Under less conservative assumptions about TBI's impact on lifespan, this estimate is 3.32 million (95% CI: 3.16-3.48 million).
CONCLUSION
Substantial long-term disability occurs among the US civilians hospitalized with a TBI.
目的
评估美国平民人口中与创伤性脑损伤（TBI）相关的长期残疾患病率。
方法
我们首先估算了在过去70年中每年有多少人因创伤性脑损伤而出现长期残疾。然后，考虑到创伤性脑损伤幸存者中死亡率的上升，我们估算了他们的预期寿命，并计算出预计在2005年仍存活的人数。
结果
据估计，在2005年初，美国平民人口中有1.1%（即317万人，95%可信区间：302万 - 332万）因创伤性脑损伤而患有长期残疾。在对创伤性脑损伤对寿命影响的假设不那么保守的情况下，这一估计数为332万（95%可信区间：316万 - 348万）。
结论
在美国因创伤性脑损伤住院的平民中，出现了大量长期残疾情况。
