The association between pain type, cognition and complaint after mild traumatic brain injury in prospectively studied premorbidly healthy adults admitted to hospital.

These findings show for the first time that it is important to examine both affective and sensory aspects of pain in individuals after mTBI, as pain subtypes show differential relationships with cognition. The study also suggests that the relationship between pain and complaint is not an independent one. This study has implications for treatment and management of individuals experiencing cognitive difficulties after mTBI. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2020 APA, all rights reserved).
