Summary
This study tracked 69 older adults (age 40 and up) with traumatic brain injury to learn more about their health, frailty, and recovery. Researchers collected data on medications, injuries, and outcomes to find better ways to manage care. No new treatments were tested—the goal was to gather information to guide future care.
