The purpose of this study was to examine patient characteristics associated with functional cognitive gains made during in-patient rehabilitation adults with traumatic brain injury (TBI).

Learning Objectives:

Identify health-related characteristics associated with cognitive improvements during inpatient rehabilitation.
Identify pre-injury characteristics associated with cognitive improvements during inpatient rehabilitation.
Describe mean cognitive change of adults with TBI during inpatient rehabilitation.
