The Traumatic Brain Injury Screening Instrument (TBISI) was implemented in Veterans Affairs medical facilities in an attempt to identify Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom (OEF/OIF) veterans with possible mild TBI. Despite its widespread implementation, the reliability and validity of the screening tool has not yet been established. The current study reports preliminary findings on the test-retest reliability of the TBISI in 44 OEF/OIF veterans referred for neuropsychological evaluation following a positive TBI screen. Results suggest overall poor test-retest reliability of the TBI screening tool with regard to type of event, injuries sustained, and resulting sequelae. These findings underscore the importance of further investigation of its psychometric properties to promote accurate identification and referral of veterans with possible TBI.

D001930 Brain Injuries Acute and chronic (see also BRAIN INJURIES, CHRONIC) injuries to the brain, including the cerebral hemispheres, CEREBELLUM, and BRAIN STEM. Clinical manifestations depend on the nature of injury. Diffuse trauma to the brain is frequently associated with DIFFUSE AXONAL INJURY or COMA, POST-TRAUMATIC. Localized injuries may be associated with NEUROBEHAVIORAL MANIFESTATIONS; HEMIPARESIS, or other focal neurologic deficits.

D015203 Reproducibility of Results The statistical reproducibility of measurements (often in a clinical context), including the testing of instrumentation or techniques to obtain reproducible results. The concept includes reproducibility of physiological measurements, which may be used to develop rules to assess probability or prognosis, or response to a stimulus; reproducibility of occurrence of a condition; and reproducibility of experimental results.
