Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the orientation recovery process in patients with post-traumatic amnesia (PTA) following a traumatic brain injury (TBI). A retrospective observational study was carried out with 55 patients with PTA admitted to the Institut Guttmann Neurorehabilitation Hospital between 2019 and 2023. PTA was assessed using the Galveston Orientation and Amnesia Test (GOAT). Changes in the orientation recovery process were evaluated through an ad hoc questionnaire administered at four different time points. Statistically significant differences were found between the different administrations of the PTA questionnaire for the following variables: date of birth (p = 0.014), age (p = 0.014), current location (p < 0.001), hospital name (p < 0.001), year (p < 0.001), month (p < 0.001), and day of the month (p = 0.002). Our results show marked variability in patient responses, making it difficult to establish a single prototypical pattern of orientation recovery in cases of PTA. Beyond the dimensional view of orientation recovery, attention to individual elements is necessary to understand the process of orientation recovery in patients with PTA, as well as to determine the nature of early neurorehabilitation interventions.
本研究旨在探讨创伤性脑损伤(TBI)后创伤后遗忘症(PTA)患者的定向恢复过程。对2019年至2023年在Guttmann神经康复医院住院的55例PTA患者进行了回顾性观察研究。PTA采用Galveston Orientation and Amnesia Test (GOAT)进行评估。通过在四个不同时间点进行的临时问卷调查来评估定向恢复过程的变化。不同PTA问卷处理组的出生日期(p = 0.014)、年龄(p = 0.014)、居住地(p p p p p = 0.002)差异有统计学意义。我们的研究结果显示,患者的反应有明显的可变性,因此很难在PTA病例中建立单一的定向恢复原型模式。除了定向恢复的维度视图,关注个体因素对于理解PTA患者的定向恢复过程以及确定早期神经康复干预的性质是必要的。
期刊介绍:
pplied Neuropsychology-Adult publishes clinical neuropsychological articles concerning assessment, brain functioning and neuroimaging, neuropsychological treatment, and rehabilitation in adults. Full-length articles and brief communications are included. Case studies of adult patients carefully assessing the nature, course, or treatment of clinical neuropsychological dysfunctions in the context of scientific literature, are suitable. Review manuscripts addressing critical issues are encouraged. Preference is given to papers of clinical relevance to others in the field. All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor-in-Chief, and, if found suitable for further considerations are peer reviewed by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is single-blind and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
