Awareness of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and persisting post-concussive syndrome (PCS) has increased substantially in the past few decades, with a corresponding increase in research on diagnosis, management, and treatment of patients with mTBI. The purpose of this article is to provide a narrative review of the current literature on behavioral assessment and management of patients presenting with mTBI/PCS, and to detail the potential role of neuropsychologists and rehabilitation psychologists in interdisciplinary care for this population during the acute, subacute, and chronic phases of recovery.
在过去几十年中，对轻度创伤性脑损伤（mTBI）和持续性脑震荡后综合征（PCS）的认识大幅提高，与此同时，针对mTBI患者的诊断、管理和治疗的研究也相应增加。本文旨在对当前有关mTBI/PCS患者行为评估和管理的文献进行叙述性综述，并详细阐述神经心理学家和康复心理学家在该人群康复的急性期、亚急性期和慢性期的跨学科护理中的潜在作用。
