To analyse disorders and components of attention in patients with complicated mild traumatic brain injury. This information is needed to enable clinical workers to evaluate and provide training for attention deficits in patients with mild traumatic brain injury.
Randomized controlled trial.
In-patient and community recruitment.
In-patients with mild traumatic brain injury (n = 44) and community-recruited healthy subjects (n = 45).
All participants used a battery of attention tests including the Digit Span Test (DST), Digit Cancellation Test (D-CAT1 and D-CAT2), Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT), and the Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test (PASAT).
There were no differences in the results of the D-CAT between the patient and control groups (p > 0.05); however, there were significant differences in the DST, SDMT and PASAT (p < 0.01).
Patients with mild traumatic brain injury were found to have normal sustained attention and selective attention, but impaired attention span, divided attention, shifting attention and information processing speed, requiring clinical workers to focus more on these deficits.
分析复杂轻度外伤性脑损伤患者的注意障碍和成分。这些信息对于临床工作者评估和提供轻度外伤性脑损伤患者的注意力缺陷训练是必要的。
随机对照试验。
住院和社区招募。
轻度外伤性脑损伤住院患者(n=44)和社区招募的健康受试者(n=45)。
所有参与者均使用一系列注意力测试,包括数字跨度测试(DST)、数字取消测试(D-CAT1 和 D-CAT2)、符号数字模态测试(SDMT)和定速听觉序列加法测试(PASAT)。
患者组和对照组的 D-CAT 结果无差异(p>0.05);然而,DST、SDMT 和 PASAT 存在显著差异(p<0.01)。
发现轻度外伤性脑损伤患者的持续性注意力和选择性注意力正常,但注意力持续时间、分散注意力、转移注意力和信息处理速度受损,需要临床工作者更加关注这些缺陷。
