Abstract

Background Little is known about health literacy in traumatic brain injury (TBI) survivors. The aims of this study were to compare health literacy in individuals with TBI with that of a control group; to examine the association between health literacy in individuals with TBI and demographic, injury, and cognitive factors; and compare the relationship between health literacy and physical and mental health outcomes. Methods A cross-sectional observational study design was used. Adults (≥18years) were recruited from an outpatient research centre in Victoria, Australia. There were 209 participants with a complicated mild to severe TBI at least 1year previously (up to 30years 6months) and 206 control participants. Results Individuals with TBI did not have poorer health literacy than controls (IRR=1.31, P =0.102, CI95% [0.947, 1.812]). Further analysis could not be completed due to the highly skewed Health Literacy Assessment Using Talking Touchscreen Technology - Short Form (Health LiTT-SF) data. Conclusion Health literacy performance in individuals with TBI was not significantly different to controls. Premorbid education may provide a critical cognitive reserve upon which TBI survivors can draw to aid their health literacy. These findings are specific to the Health LiTT-SF measure only and require replication using more comprehensive health literacy measures in culturally diverse samples.

脑外伤后的健康素养：特征描述与对照比较。

背景对创伤性脑损伤（TBI）幸存者的健康素养知之甚少。本研究的目的是比较创伤性脑损伤患者与对照组的健康素养；研究创伤性脑损伤患者的健康素养与人口统计学、损伤和认知因素之间的关系；比较健康素养与身心健康结果之间的关系。方法采用横断面观察研究设计。研究人员从澳大利亚维多利亚州的一家门诊研究中心招募成人（≥18 岁）。其中209人在至少1年前（最长30年6个月）曾受过复杂的轻度至严重创伤性脑损伤，206人属于对照组。结果患有创伤性脑损伤者的健康素养并不比对照组差（IRR=1.31，P=0.102，CI95% [0.947，1.812]）。由于使用会说话的触摸屏技术进行的健康素养评估--简表（Health LiTT-SF）数据偏差较大，因此无法完成进一步分析。结论患有创伤性脑损伤的个体在健康素养方面的表现与对照组没有明显差异。病前教育可为创伤性脑损伤幸存者提供重要的认知储备，从而帮助他们提高健康素养。这些研究结果仅适用于 Health LiTT-SF 测量，需要在不同文化背景的样本中使用更全面的健康素养测量方法进行验证。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
