The objective of this study is to assess the effectiveness of a day treatment program offered by the Kanagawa Rehabilitation Hospital that is a comprehensive team approach for treating traumatic brain injury (TBI) outpatients. We performed a prospective study using 18 TBI patients with cognitive impairment who were treated at the Kanagawa Rehabilitation Hospital. We applied neuropsychological tests, Functional Independence Measure/Functional Assessment Measure (FIM/FAM) and a Community Integration Questionnaire (CIQ) at the initiation of this program. To assess the effectiveness of this program, the outcomes of these 18 patients were compared with the outcomes of 12 control patients. The eighteen patients enrolled in this study received 4 sessions for 2 to 4 hours a day, 2 days a week, over a 3 to 6 month period. As a result, significant improvements in attention, social integration scores for FAM, and productive scores for CIQ were evident in the enrolled subjects. In addition, 6 of the 18 patients went back to their former work or school. These results demonstrate the effectiveness of this program in helping TBI patients back to society.
