Abstract:
:Using standardized data abstracted from a representative sample of hospitals in north-central Alabama, we analyze significant social and physical factors in acute care discharge referral patterns for 756 people with traumatic brain injury (TBI). When a Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation specialist is involved in the referral, patients receive more formal rehabilitation care following discharge, even after controlling for the relevant social and physical characteristics of the patient. Other significant variables predicting the level of rehabilitation care include presence of injury-related complications, abnormal computed tomography scan, longer length of acute care stay, being unmarried, older, and having an unintentional injury. Patients not seen by rehabilitation medicine specialists and/or those whose injuries provide less clinical evidence (implying greater uncertainty of diagnosis) are less likely to be referred to more formal rehabilitation. Thus, social and demographic factors may be significant in referral patterns when diagnostic uncertainty is present. Results suggest the importance of increasing availability of rehabilitation medicine consultation for TBI patients, while informing acute care providers about formal rehabilitation as a management option.
