The Risk of Hospital Admission Due to Traumatic Brain Injury Is Increased in Older Persons With Severe Functional Limitations.

Abstract:

INTRODUCTION:Hospital admissions due to traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) in older persons are increasing. Falls are the leading mechanism of injury in this age group. TBIs are associated with unfavorable outcomes such as mortality and institutionalization. OBJECTIVES:To estimate rates of TBIs in older persons with severe functional limitations, expressed as "care need," living in the community, and in older persons with care need living in nursing homes compared with older persons without care need. PARTICIPANTS:More than 1.2 million persons aged 65 years and older living in Bavaria, Germany, and insured with one of the largest German health insurances (health care and long-term care insurance). METHODS:Age-standardized rates were calculated based on hospital claims data and claims data of the long-term care insurance and were compared between groups. The 3 groups were defined by claims data of the long-term care insurance. RESULTS:TBI in older persons account for 4.8 hospital admissions per 1000 person-years. Overall TBI rates do not differ significantly between men and women. TBI rates are lowest in persons without care need and are highest for older persons living in nursing homes. Their contribution to the overall burden of TBI is lower than their contribution to the burden of fragility fractures. CONCLUSION:TBIs in older persons are common. Those with severe functional limitations are at increased risk for TBI. Nursing home residents have the highest rates of TBI. Fall prevention programs should seek to prevent not only fragility fractures but also head impact.
