Pharmacological management for agitation and aggression in people with acquired brain injury

Advanced regression methods for single-case designs: Studying propranolol in the treatment for agitation associated with traumatic brain injury.

“…Such a choice would seem to require adequate monitoring to determine whether continued administration was beneficial, worthwhile, and cost-effective. These observations are consistent with other expert opinions concerning the use of propanolol in the treatment of agitation (Fleminger et al, 2006).…”

Associations between β-blockers and psychiatric and behavioural outcomes: A population-based cohort study of 1.4 million individuals in Sweden

“…However, we found that associations remained decreased in both those hospitalised and those not. Our results were broadly consistent with evidence from small studies on individuals with psychiatric conditions and cognitive impairment [ 40 , 41 , 72 ], but we have substantially increased the sample size. We also showed reductions for non-violent crime during β-blocker treatment and for violent crime in 2 higher-risk groups, i.e., those with a history of psychiatric problems and violent crime, respectively.…”
