ABSTRACT
Management of symptoms following traumatic brain injury (TBI) can be complex and remains a high priority for Department of Defense (DoD) and Department of Veteran Affairs (VA). Concurrently, awareness of TBI in the public has increased. VA convened a State of the Art (SOTA) Conference to identify priorities for future research and promote best practices for TBI care. Scientific evidence of effective management of symptoms following TBI is expanding, and this evidence has been synthesized into Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs) and Clinical Practice Recommendations (CPRs). Knowledge gaps still exist and research efforts to address these gaps should include leveraging large administrative data sets and existing registries to determine effective treatments, investigate compliance of existing clinical care with CPGs and study limitations to determine modifiable vs. non-modifiable core tenants of the evidence-based treatments.
