Hi, I woud like to know whether there has a "gold standard" for identifying cognitive impairment of TBI patients? from the perspectives of neurologists, neurosurgeons, psychologists, occupational therapists and other professionals.
For the latest on this, please, see a systematic review by Radomski, Anheluk, Bartzen, & Zola. The full reference is as follows:
Radomski, M. V., Anheluk, M., Bartzen, M. P., & Zola, J. (2016). Effectiveness of interventions to address cognitive impairments and improve occupational performance after traumatic brain injury: A systematic review. American Journal of Occupational Therapy, 70, 7003180050p1-7003180050p9. doi:10.5014/ajot.2016.020776
