Abstract
Results in this study are similar to those in earlier studies with smaller sample sizes. Major differences observed include significantly slower and more costly progress in inpatient rehabilitation for older patients with TBI, as well as a significantly lower rate of discharge to community for older patients. However, even with decreasing LOS in both settings, community discharge rate is still encouraging for older patients with TBI.
