A message from Clymer.."CC"..Conrad Clyburn to all members of Traumatic Brain Injury - TBI on MedTechIQ!
Colleagues,
Thank you to Dr Eric Noji for informing us of the following December 2008 release...The Institute of Medicine (IOM) has just released Gulf War and Health, Volume 7: Long-term Consequences of Traumatic Brain Injury, in which the IOM assesses the possible long-term health outcomes of traumatic brain injury (TBI).
The committee details numerous outcomes that might be associated with mild, moderate, and severe injuries. These include: neurologic, endocrine, psychologic outcomes, in addition to problems with social functioning.
In addition to the report’s findings, recommendations are provided for study of blast injuries and the report suggests methods of data-gathering for future research to improve our understanding of blast injuries which ultimately would improve veteran care. The report is part of the IOM’s Gulf War and Health series and was sponsored by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.
