Posted: 3/3/2024 by Robert Flint, MD (Updated: 7/21/2026)

This is a retrospective study looking at traumatic brain injury patients comparing those with and without  pre-existing psychiatric illness at the time of injury. Those with pre-existing illness had longer hospital stays, longer ICU stays and more frequent readmissions.
