abstract: 'BackgroundCognitive-communication disorders (CCDs) are common in the
traumatic brain injury (TBI) population. Despite this, there has been
limited research that explores the long-term impacts of reduced
cognitive-communication functioning on daily life for this population.
AimsTo identify the long-term impacts of cognitive-communication
impairment as reported by adults with TBI and their significant others.
Methods \& ProceduresA qualitative descriptive approach grounded in
phenomenology was used. Semi-structured, one-on-one interviews were
conducted with adults with CCDs following TBI (n = 16) and their
significant others (n = 12) to explore their lived experiences. Outcomes
\& ResultsReflexive thematic analysis revealed an overarching theme of
`The pervasive and unyielding impacts of cognitive-communication changes
on daily life following TBI''. Within this overarching theme, three
subthemes were identified: (1) self-awareness of communication changes;
(2) fatigue; and (3) self-identity and life roles. Conclusion \&
ImplicationsThe findings from this study highlight the long-term
negative impacts of reduced cognitive-communication functioning on daily
life. Health professionals supporting this population should consider
ways to reduce the significant impact CCDs have on the lives of adults
following TBI and their significant others. In addition, the findings
highlight the importance of long-term rehabilitation services following
TBI, with further research needed that explores how these services can
be optimised. What this paper addsWhat is already known on this
subjectCognitive-communication disorders (CCDs) affect the majority of
adults who experience moderate to severe traumatic brain injury (TBI)
and encompass any component of communication that is affected by
cognition. The hallmark characteristic of CCDs are breakdowns that
affect social communication skills as well as cognitive-linguistic
deficits. Combined, these can have dramatic implications for a person''s
quality of life, their level of independence, employment opportunities
and social participation. There has been limited research to date that
explores the long-term impacts of CCDs on the lives of adults following
TBI. Further research that explores these impacts is needed to improve
the support services and rehabilitation models of care available for
this population. What this study addsThe overarching theme was `The
pervasive and unyielding impacts of communication changes on daily life
following TBI'' with subthemes including changed communication,
self-awareness of communication changes, fatigue and self-identity and
life roles. The findings from this study highlight the long-term
negative impacts of reduced cognitive-communication functioning on
everyday functioning and quality of life as well as the importance of
long-term rehabilitation services following TBI. What are the clinical
implications of this work?Speech-language therapists and other health
professionals working with this clinical population should consider how
to address the significant and long-lasting impacts of CCDs. Due to the
complex nature of the barriers experienced by this clinical population,
an interdisciplinary targeted approach is advised wherever possible when
providing rehabilitation services.'
