Post-Concussion Symptoms in Older Adults Following a Mild Traumatic Brain Injury
Our results identified patient characteristics associated with PPCS that can be easily recognized in the ED, such as patient sex, the use of at least 3 different medications and the presence of cervical sprain. Early identification of older adults at higher risk of PPCS is important to optimize care and guide post-ED management.
