To measure patient functional outcomes across rehabilitation centers.
Traumatic Brain Injury Model System (TBIMS) centers.
Patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) admitted to 21 TBIMS rehabilitation centers (N = 6975, during 1999-2008).
Retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data.
Center-specific functional outcomes of TBI patients using Functional Independence Measure, Disability Rating Scale, and Glasgow Outcome Scale-Extended.
There were large differences in patient characteristics across centers (demographics, TBI severity, and functional deficits at admission to rehabilitation). However, even after taking those factors into account, there were significant differences in functional outcomes of patients treated at different TBIMS centers.
There are significant differences in functional outcomes of TBI patients across rehabilitation centers.
衡量各康复中心患者的功能结局。
创伤性脑损伤模型系统(TBIMS)中心。
21个TBIMS康复中心收治的创伤性脑损伤(TBI)患者(1999 - 2008年期间,N = 6975)。
对前瞻性收集的数据进行回顾性分析。
使用功能独立性测量、残疾评定量表和扩展的格拉斯哥结局量表评估TBI患者的中心特异性功能结局。
各中心患者特征存在很大差异(人口统计学、TBI严重程度以及康复入院时的功能缺陷)。然而,即使考虑了这些因素,不同TBIMS中心治疗的患者功能结局仍存在显著差异。
各康复中心TBI患者的功能结局存在显著差异。
