Neuropsychological evaluations can be helpful in the aftermath of traumatic brain injury. Cognitive functioning is assessed using standardized assessment tools and by comparing an individual's scores on testing to normative data. These evaluations examine objective cognitive functioning as well as other factors that have been shown to influence performance on cognitive tests (eg, psychiatric conditions, sleep) in an attempt to answer a specific question from referring providers. Referral questions may focus on the extent of impairment, the trajectory of recovery, or ability to return to work, sport, or the other previous activity.
神经心理学评估在创伤性脑损伤后可能会有所帮助。认知功能是通过使用标准化评估工具和将个体在测试中的得分与常模数据进行比较来评估的。这些评估检查客观的认知功能，以及其他已被证明会影响认知测试表现的因素（例如，精神状况、睡眠），试图回答转介提供者的具体问题。转介问题可能集中在损伤程度、恢复轨迹或重返工作、运动或其他先前活动的能力上。
