Psychiatric referral after head trauma.
This preliminary study of 22 patients referred for psychiatric consultation after HT requires further investigation to better define the trends observed regarding diagnosis, injury site, and medication choice. The absence of a control population of HT patients not referred for psychiatric evaluation limits our ability to make definitive conclusions. Further work is also planned to systematically explore the injury site-medication relationship.
