Study objective
To examine participation of children and adolescents during the first six months after mild traumatic brain injury and to identify predictors for this outcome. Furthermore, to examine the effect of an early intervention, meant to prevent participation problems at six months post injury, compared to the usual care.
We hypothesize that the early intervention is more effective in preventing long-term problems on activity and participation after mild traumatic brain injury, compared to the usual care.
Study design
Two weeks, three months and six months post injury.
Intervention
Controlgroup receives care as usual consisting of a concise information brochure.
Interventiongroup receives care as usual and casemanagement, consisting of:
- Inventarisation of complaints/problems after the injury;
- Psycho-education;
- Follow-up.
