Chronic motor performance following different traumatic brain injury severity—A systematic review

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is now known to be a chronic disease, causing ongoing neurodegeneration and linked to increased risk of neurodegenerative motor diseases, such as Parkinson's disease and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. While the presentation of motor deficits acutely following traumatic brain injury is well-documented, however, less is known about how these evolve in the long-term post-injury, or how the initial severity of injury affects these outcomes. The purpose of this review, therefore, was to examine objective assessment of chronic motor impairment across the spectrum of TBI in both preclinical and clinical models.

Methods

PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and PsycINFO databases were searched with a search strategy containing key search terms for TBI
