Traumatic Brain Injuries Evaluated in U.S. Emergency Departments, 1992‐1994

Abstract

This study underscores the ongoing need for effective surveillance of all types of TBI and evaluation of prevention strategies targeting high-risk individuals. It serves as a clinically grounded and ED-based corroboration of prior survey research, providing a basis for comparison of incidence rates over time and a tool with which to measure the efficacy of future interventions.
