One-third of US IPV/DV-related trauma cases have TBI, comprising predominantly female patients. Black patients with IPV/DV-related trauma were overrepresented compared with US census estimates. IPV/DV-TBI had increased ICU admissions, LOS, in-hospital mortality, and inability to discharge home compared with non-TBI. Investigating morbidity risk factors and providing sociomedical resources during acute care are critically needed in this vulnerable population.
