Objective.

To compare acute outcome following complicated versus uncomplicated mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI) using neurocognitive and self-report measures.

Method.

Participants were 47 patients who presented to the emergency department of Tampere University Hospital, Finland.

All completed MRI scanning, self-report measures, and neurocognitive testing at 3-4 weeks after injury.

Participants were classified into the complicated MTBI or uncomplicated MTBI group based on the presence/absence of intracranial abnormality on day-of-injury CT scan or 3-4 week MRI scan.

Results.

There was a large statistically significant difference in time to return to work between groups.

The patients with uncomplicated MTBIs had a median of 6.0 days (IQR = 0.75–14.75, range = 0–77) off work compared to a median of 36 days (IQR = 13.5–53, range = 3–315) for the complicated group.

There were no significant differences between groups for any of the neurocognitive or self-report measures.

There were no differences in the proportion of patients who (a) met criteria for ICD-10 postconcussional disorder or (b) had multiple low scores on the neurocognitive measures.

Conclusion.

Patients with complicated MTBIs took considerably longer to return to work.

They did not perform more poorly on neurocognitive measures or report more symptoms, at 3-4 weeks after injury compared to patients with uncomplicated MTBIs.
