This study supports the use of FIM at rehabilitation admission as a predictor of return to driving. Future studies should be directed at identifying other measures to be used in combination with FIM to accurately predict return to driving post-TBI.
This study presents preliminary evidence that a rehabilitation programme that targets functional needs rather than diagnosis may be useful in improving function after traumatic brain injury.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
