Nicholl J et al. - The prevalence of traumatic brain injury (TBI) is increasing, particularly in the population of veterans. Many times, the motor and sensory consequences of TBI are addressed, but the post-TBI neuropsychiatric sequelae, which may be as, or even more devastating than the motor and sensory deficits, are left unattended. Cognitive, mood, anxiety, thought, impulse, and substance disorders, and a variety of personality disorders can be seen following TBI. The neuropsychiatric sequelae of TBI not only interfere with day-to-day function, but can severely impede rehabilitation efforts. To date, there have been few large-scale studies looking at the effectiveness of the various treatment modalities, including psychotherapeutic and pharmacological interventions.
