2017, Aggression and Violent BehaviorCitation Excerpt :Boswell et al. (2002), for instance, found that among adults who presented to the ED, 39% self-reported that they had not sought medical treatment for a previous mTBI/concussion, with 36% of this group reporting that their previous injury involved loss of consciousness (LOC). Additional research has reported that some mTBIs/concussions presenting to hospitals are not recorded (Moss & Wade, 1996), particularly if these injuries were considered minor or occurred concurrently with other more serious injuries. To date much of the research examining associations between aggression and TBI has not used community samples and has instead used samples from populations such as those who have had contact with the criminal justice system and those who are recruited through hospitals or clinical settings.
Long-term functional outcomes of traumatic brain injury
2015, Handbook of Clinical NeurologyCitation Excerpt :See the introduction to this volume for a definition of TBI. It should be noted that there is as yet no gold standard measure of TBI across the full severity range, and TBIs are frequently miscoded even among hospitalized patients (Moss and Wade, 1996; Bazarian et al., 2006). Frequent miscoding and underreporting of mild TBIs (McCrea et al., 2004) of TBIs and TBI severity undoubtedly results in mischaracterization of the association between TBI and TBI severity and long-term outcomes.
Mild traumatic brain injury diagnosis frequently remains unrecorded in subjects with craniofacial fractures
2012, InjuryCitation Excerpt :According to earlier studies, the accuracy of diagnosing mild TBI at emergency departments is not good. Moss and Wade reported a failure to record TBI among 24/47 head injured subjects (51%) in a District and Teaching hospital.15 Four of the subjects (4/24, 17%) had moderate or severe injuries.
