Agency for Health Care Policy and Research (AHCPR) |
| Description |
The AHCPR develops evidence reports and technology
assessments to assist public and private-sector
organizations in their efforts to improve the quality
of health care in the United States. Five key questions
were developed by researchers for purposes of this
assessment:
- Does the application of early, intensive medical
rehabilitation in the acute care hospital improve
outcomes for children with TBI?
- Among children diagnosed with TBI, how many
are provided with special education that is designed
to accommodate the needs of TBI?
- Do children with TBI who receive special education
designed to accommodate the needs of TBI have
better outcomes than those who are provided with
special education that is not so designed and
those who do not receive special education?
- For children who have sustained brain injury,
does the early identification of (a) the child's
developmental stage at the time of injury; (b)
the child's developmental stage at the time of
assessment; and (c) the extent to which the injury
has arrested the child's normal developmental
process increase the ability to predict when the
child will exhibit the needs, behaviors and problems
resulting from brain injury?
- Does the provision of support to families of
children with brain injury enhance the family's
ability to cope and reduce the burden of illness?
