Abstract

Purpose: To compare clinical characteristics in patients with concussions sustained by prevalent, but understudied, mechanisms (work-related concussion [WRC] and motor vehicle collision [MVC]-related concussion) to sport-related concussion (SRC).

Methods: Retrospective review of 281 electronic medical records from an outpatient concussion clinic. Time since injury (days), duration of care (days), amount of care (number of visits), and perceived health (Short-Form 12) were collected.

Results: The time between injury and clinic presentation was significantly greater in WRC and MVC-related concussion compared to SRC. These groups were also older, had a longer duration of care, required more referrals for outside clinical services, and reported worse perceived mental and physical health versus SRC.

Conclusion: These results suggest that clinical courses may be significantly different for individuals with SRC, WRC and MVC-related concussion, and that different management approaches and expectations may be necessary for these groups. Further research is indicated.

工作、机动车碰撞和运动中持续脑震荡个体的不同临床特征。

目的：比较常见但尚未充分研究的机制（工作相关脑震荡[WRC]和机动车碰撞[MVC]相关脑震荡）与运动相关脑震荡（SRC）患者的临床特征。方法：回顾性分析某脑震荡门诊281份电子病历。收集自受伤以来的时间（天）、护理持续时间（天）、护理量（就诊次数）和感知健康（短表12）。结果：与SRC相比，WRC和mvc相关的脑震荡从受伤到临床表现的时间明显更长。与SRC相比，这些群体年龄更大，护理时间更长，需要更多的外部临床服务转诊，并且报告的心理和身体健康状况更差。结论：这些结果表明，SRC、WRC和mvc相关脑震荡患者的临床病程可能有显著差异，这些群体可能需要不同的治疗方法和期望。建议进一步研究。
