Stopped: difficulty recruiting and no sociologists
Minor traumatic brain injury (mTBI) (Glasgow Coma Scale 13 to 15) represent 70 to 90% of traumatic brain injury. Different disorders may occur after a traumatic minor brain injury (somatic, cognitive or affective) within 2 weeks. For 10 to 20% these symptoms are persistent and are part of post-concussion syndrome. Today a small amount of tools to predict this syndrome are available. Cerebral CT scan, a routine test for mTBI, isn't relevant to predict the post concussion syndrome. In order to improve understanding of the evolution toward this complication, it seems relevant to run a multimodal study. Multiparameter MRI combined to psychological and sociological evaluations cold provide a better global perception.
