Distinct Five-Year Latent Class Trajectories and Predictors of Functional Cognitive Independence Following Traumatic Brain Injury: A TBI Model Systems Study.

Early prediction of short- and long-term health outcomes remains a significant medical challenge for clinicians providing care for the traumatic brain injury (traumatic brain injury) population.

We aimed to identify the heterogeneous longitudinal recovery trajectories of functional cognitive independence during 5 years post-injury and reveal the demographic, clinical, and injury-related factors associated with trajectory membership.
