abstract: 'Objectives: To determine the types of environmental barriers reported by
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
persons with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and to identify the relations
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
between environmental barriers and such components of societal
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
participation as employment, community mobility, social integration, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
life satisfaction. Design: Seventy-three persons with TBI who were
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
participating in the TBI Model Systems program at Craig Hospital were
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
surveyed at 1 year, using a new measure of the environment, the Craig
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Hospital Inventory of Environmental Factors (CHIEF), which rates
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
frequency and impact of 25 barriers. Results: Transportation, the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
surroundings, government policies, attitudes, and the natural
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
environment were the environmental barriers with the greatest reported
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
impact. Those who were married, older, and unemployed or not in school
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
reported the most barriers overall. Additionally, those reporting a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
greater impact from environmental barriers also reported lower levels of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
participation and life satisfaction. Conclusions: Although environmental
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
barriers affect TBI survivors and play a role in their outcomes, their
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
interplay with other, perhaps as yet unidentified, factors requires
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
continued research. CHIEF may be a valuable tool for understanding the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
environment''s role in the lives of people with TBI, and identifying the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
general environmental domains where interventions are needed to reduce
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
their negative impact.'
