Of 145 patients with concussion from minor head injuries admitted to the Royal Victoria Hospital, Belfast, over one year, 49.0 per cent had no symptoms, 38.9 per cent had between 1 and 6 symptoms, and 2.1 per cent had more than 6 symptoms about six weeks after the accident. There was significant correlation between a high symptom-rate at six weeks and positive neurological signs and symptoms at twenty-four hours. Post-concussion symptoms were more frequent in women, in those injured by falls, and in those who blamed their employers or large impersonal organisations for their accidents. The results suggest that both organic and neurotic factors are involved in the pathogenesis of symptoms at six weeks.
在一年时间里，贝尔法斯特皇家维多利亚医院收治了145例因轻微头部受伤而脑震荡的患者，事故发生约六周后，49.0%的患者无症状，38.9%的患者有1至6种症状，2.1%的患者有超过6种症状。六周时高症状发生率与24小时时的阳性神经体征和症状之间存在显著相关性。脑震荡后症状在女性、因跌倒受伤的患者以及那些将事故归咎于雇主或大型非个人组织的患者中更为常见。结果表明，六周时症状的发病机制涉及器质性和神经症性因素。
