The list of tools appearing here was derived by a consensus of experts working on the Evidence-Based Review of Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) literature. The tools were chosen based on a 3-step process. The first was the development of an inventory of current outcome measures based on both the literature and discussions held with rehabilitation team members who actually use the tools. The second was a consensus agreement among a panel of experts as to which tools are most important. Finally, there had to be sufficient research on the outcome measure in ABI populations to allow a meaningful analysis of the psychometric qualities of the tools. Those outcome measures that made it through this process were selected for review. An exhaustive list of outcome tools is not listed here as there are over 700 measures related to function following Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) (Tate et al., 2013). Table 17.1 Selected Tools for Assessment of Outcome in ABI Tool Agitated Behavior Scale Berg Balance Scale Community Balance and Mobility Scale Community Integration Questionnaire Disability Rating Scale Fatigue Severity Scale Functional Independence Measure Functional Assessment Measure Galveston Orientation and Amnesia Test Glasgow Coma Scale Glasgow Outcome Scale Hamilton Anxiety and Depression Scale Mayo-Portland Adaptability Inventory Medical Outcomes Study SF-36 Mini Mental State Evaluation Neurobehavioural Functioning Inventory Rancho Los Amigos Level of Cognitive Functioning Scale Satisfaction with Life Scale Quality of Life after TBI Evaluation Criteria for Outcome Measures It is necessary to have a set of criteria to guide the selection of outcomes measures. Reliability, validity and responsiveness have widespread use and are discussed as being essential to the evaluation of outcome measures (Duncan et al., 2002; Law, 2002; Roberts & Counsell, 1998; van der Putten et al., 1999). Finch et al. (2002) provide a good tutorial on issues for outcome measure selection. The Health Technology Assessment programme (Fitzpatrick et al., 1998) examined 413 articles focusing on methodological aspects of the use and development of patient-based outcome measures. In their report, they recommend the use of eight evaluation criteria (Table 17.2). These criteria, including some additional considerations described below, were applied to each of the outcome measures reviewed in this chapter.

  • The PASAT and Traumatic Brain Injury
    USING DISABILITY RATING SCALE RECOVERY CURVES TO PREDICT PASAT PERFORMANCE AFTER CLOSED HEAD INJURY ______________ A Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the Department of Psychology University of Houston ______________ In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts ______________ By Marika P. Faytell December, 2014 i USING DISABILITY RATING SCALE RECOVERY CURVES TO PREDICT PASAT PERFORMANCE AFTER CLOSED HEAD INJURY _______________ An Abstract of a Thesis Presented to The Faculty of the Department of Psychology University of Houston _______________ In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts _______________ By Marika P. Faytell December, 2014 iii ABSTRACT Objective: Existing predictive models of cognitive outcome following closed head injury have been largely based on a single time-point. Using archival data, the current study sought to improve upon existing models by predicting cognitive outcome at six months post-injury from a model of the rate of recovery of global functioning over four time-points: hospital discharge, one, three and six months post-injury. Participants and Method: Data from 91 individuals with complicated mild, moderate, and severe closed head injury who had participated in CPHS approved, NIH funded research that involved the collection of global outcome data and neuropsychological testing at six months post injury were used. Disability Rating Scale (DRS) scores from discharge, one, three and six months post-injury were selected along with Paced Auditory Serial Addition Test (PASAT) scores at six months post injury. The PASAT is a task that involves multiple cognitive domains, including processing speed, sustained and divided attention, and working and immediate memory.

We routinely use a combination of qEEG, evoked potentials, brain SPECT/PET, MRI/CT, and objective behavioral evaluation focusing on cognitive processes as Host: Angelos Halaris well as mood regulation. We developed a technique whereby we combine qEEG with SPECT/PET, which captures brain electrical activity as well as perfusion/metabolism, and correlate these profiles to structural features defined by MRI/CT.
