Older adults tended to report fewer symptoms, but symptoms had a roughly equivalent relationship with declines in functioning across age groups. A large percentage of older adults in this study had pre-injury dementia or neurological disease that contributed to missing data on the 1-week outcome measures. The results provide insight into the impact of mild spectrum TBI on older adults compared to younger patients.
