Abstract

To examine the influence of depression on postconcussion symptom reporting in patients following mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI). Sixty patients referred to a specialty clinic following MTBI, 58 outpatients with Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-diagnosed depression, and 72 healthy community control participants. Participants with MTBI were divided into 2 subgroups on the basis of self-reported symptoms of depression (23 MTBI-depressed, 37 MTBI-not depressed). All participants completed a postconcussion symptom questionnaire. British Columbia Post-concussion Symptom Inventory. There were significant differences in total reported postconcussion symptoms among all 4 groups (all P < .002; Cohen's d = 0.68-3.24, large to very large effect sizes; MTBI-depressed > depressed outpatients > MTBI-no depression > healthy controls). There were significant differences in the number of symptoms endorsed (P < .05), with the highest number of symptoms endorsed by the MTBI-depressed group, followed by depressed outpatients, MTBI-no depression, and healthy controls. Patients who experience MTBIs and who have a postinjury recovery course complicated by significant depression report more postconcussion symptoms, and more severe symptoms, th...Continue Reading
