Brief Summary
Combat-related traumatic brain injury (cTBI), particularly blast-related injury, is frequently associated with the development of persistent and disabling chronic pain. This prospective observational cohort study aims to determine the incidence, phenotypes, and early predictors of chronic pain following mild to moderate combat-related TBI. Adults will be enrolled within 14 days of injury and followed for 6 months. Th...Show More
Detailed Description
Combat-related traumatic brain injury (cTBI), particularly blast-associated injury, is a major contributor to the development of chronic pain syndromes in military populations. Pain following cTBI may present as chronic post-traumatic headache, cervicogenic pain, neuropathic pain, or widespread pain associated with central sensitization. The interaction between neuronal injury, psychological stress (including PTSD), ...Show More

Combat-Related TBI Cohort
Adults aged 18-60 years with mild to moderate combat-related traumatic brain injury enrolled within 14 days of injury. Participants will undergo standardized clinical, psychological, and pain assessments and will be followed prospectively for 6 months to evaluate the development of chronic pain.

Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome MeasureMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
Clinically significant chronic pain at 3 months after injury.
Clinically significant chronic pain is defined as pain intensity ≥4 on the 0-10 Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) and/or pain interference score ≥4 on the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI) at 3 months post-injury. The proportion of participants meeting this definition will be calculated, and predictors of chronic pain will be evaluated using multivariable modeling.
From injury to 3 months (±2 weeks) post-injury.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome MeasureMeasure DescriptionTime Frame
Clinically significant chronic pain at 6 months
Presence of chronic pain defined as NRS ≥4 and/or BPI interference score ≥4 at 6 months post-injury.
6 months (±3 weeks) after injury
Neuropathic pain phenotype
Presence of neuropathic pain features defined as DN4 score ≥4.
3 and 6 months after injury
