Abstract

Purpose of Review

The purpose of this review is to provide an update regarding recent research and recommendations in the care of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).

Recent Findings

New diagnostic criteria for mTBI have recently been developed by the American Congress of Rehabilitation Medicine through the Delphi method and this will help to standardize assessment, diagnosis, and treatment.

Summary

Symptoms of mTBI are diverse and can sometimes become persistent. Treatment of mTBI should be patient-centered and may require subspeciality referral and coordinated, inter-disciplinary, or multi-disciplinary treatment.
