For healthcare professionals, Richard Roberts, a clinical neuropsychologist who has worked with adults with traumatic brain injury, and Mary Ann Roberts (pediatrics, U. of Iowa) discuss the assessment and treatment of adults and children with mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) or brain concussion who do not fully recover within three to six months. They place these patients in a subgroup they call multisymptomatic intermittent neurobehavioral disorder (MIND), having intermittent or episodic symptoms that make diagnosis and treatment difficult. They discuss these symptoms through a case history, why these patients have trouble getting help, the research evidence, types of symptoms, and the use and practical aspects of mood stabilizers with anticonvulsant properties. They also address blast trauma as a risk factor, behavioral strategies and coping tips, and pediatric cases, and include the Iowa Interview for assessment.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Mild Traumatic Brain Injury proposes that there is a diagnosable and treatable sub-type of Persistent Post-Concussive Syndrome (PPCS) following mild Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). This sub-type of PPCS is characterized by: (a) multiple intermittent (or "partial seizure-like") symptoms in the absence of a conventional epileptic syndrome; (b) untriggered, ego-dystonic mood-swings in the absence of clear environmental precipitants; (c) memory lapses and brief gap of "lost time;" and a high prior probability of responding well to treatment with anti-convulsant mood-stabilizers, such as valproic acid (Depakote, Divalproex) and carbamazepine (Tegretol). Both pediatric and adults patients may suffer from this loosely-defined syndrome and may go untreated for months or even years following one or more instances of mild TBI. The authors and contributors, from diverse professional backgrounds - including Adult Neuropsychology, Child Neuropsychology, Sports Medicine, and Neuropsychiatry - present a valuable, expert insight into the needs and methods of treatment for this large and often underserved population.Clearly written, practical, and requiring little knowledge of brain structure and function, Mild Traumatic Brain Injury provides all involved in client care with the tools they need to ensure good outcomes.Of particular value will be the near-unique coverage of the the mechanisms underlying blast-induced neuro-trauma, a subject of great concern to military personnel, care-providers, and their families.
