Study on Decision-Making Fatigue After Traumatic Brain Injury

This study is looking at how a mild to moderate traumatic brain injury (TBI) affects your ability to make decisions and how that might lead to mental tiredness, called decision-making fatigue. Researchers are using two computer-based tasks, COGED and Restless Bandit, to see if these tools can effectively measure decision-making fatigue in people who have had a TBI, as well as in healthy individuals. You might be able to join if you are an adult aged 18 or older, have had a mild to moderate TBI, and can complete computer assessments. The main goal is to see if these computer tasks are practical for evaluating decision-making fatigue after TBI. The current recruitment status is unclear, but they plan to enroll 40 participants.

Study design
This is a preliminary study that will include 40 participants. It is an interventional study, meaning participants will engage in specific tasks.
What's involved
You would attend a total of three visits at Hennepin Healthcare Systems, Inc. Each visit will involve surveys and computerized assessments.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
The feasibility of using the assessments will be measured at 4 years.

  • Feasibility of using COGED and Bandit computerized assessments in evaluating Decision-Making Fatigue after TBI4 years

    Feasibility will be calculated using the sum total number of patients who completed at least 80% of study procedures divided by the sum total number of patients, which is a proportion ranging from 0 to 1. We will then determine if that exceeds 0.5, with higher numbers indicating more feasible.
