Neurobehavioural deficits after severe traumatic brain injury (TBI)

Abstract

The data shows that neurobehavioural deficits after TBI do not show a general tendency to disappear over time. Some aspects related to self-appraisal, conceptual disorganization and affect may even deteriorate, thereby presenting a challenging problem for both the patients and relatives. This is in contrast to the parallel improvement of post-traumatic sensomotoric deficits.
