Longitudinal health outcomes in caregivers of military members with traumatic brain injury.
Purpose/objective: To examine longitudinal change in health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in caregivers of service members/veterans with traumatic brain injury and factors associated with clinically elevated symptoms.
Research method/design: Caregivers (N = 220) completed nine HRQOL outcome measures and 10 risk factor measures at a baseline evaluation and follow-up evaluation 3 years later. Caregiver's responses on the nine HRQOL outcome measures were classified into four clinical change categories based on the presence/absence of clinically elevated T-scores (≥ 60 T) at baseline and follow-up: (a) Persistent (baseline ≥ 60T + follow-up ≥ 60 T), (b) Developed (baseline < 60 T + follow-up ≥ 60 T), (c) Improved (baseline ≥ 60 T + follow-up < 60 T), and (d) Asymptomatic (baseline < 60 T + follow-up < 60 T). A clinical change composite score was calculated by summing the number of Persistent or Developed HRQOL outcome measures and used to create three clinical change groups: (a) No Symptoms (n = 69, zero measures), (b) Some Symptoms (n = 88, one to three measures), and (c) Numerous Symptoms (n = 63, four to nine measures).
Results: Of the nine HRQOL outcome measures, Bodily Pain, Perceived Stress, Sleep-Related Impairment, and Fatigue were most frequently classified as Persistent or Developed from baseline to follow-up in the entire sample. A linear relationship was found between the vast majority of risk factors across the three clinical change groups at baseline and follow-up (Numerous > Some > None). The risk factors were correlated with the number of elevated HRQOL symptoms at baseline and follow-up. Most Asymptomatic or Persistent caregivers did not have meaningful change (≥ 1 SD) in HRQOL scores. A sizable proportion of Developed or Improved caregivers had either meaningful or no change in HRQOL scores.
Conclusions/implications: There is a need for ongoing clinical services for military caregivers. (PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved).
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.
