Traumatic Brain Injury and Depressive Symptoms in Community-Dwelling Older Adults
We observed a robust and persistent association of TBI with depressive symptoms and antidepressant prescriptions in this cohort of older, community-dwelling adults regardless of participant characteristics. These results suggest that universal screening for and prompt treatment of depressive symptoms in among older adults with a history of TBI is warranted.
