The Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)
Surveillance System is a case definition validation study that is
designed to test the validity of a three-tiered case definition
which will assess whether a TBI was sustained among adults and
children during the last 12 months using parent- and self-report.
Data from this study will be used to understand whether the
proposed case definition and its underlying hypotheses are
reflective of the data collected. In addition, the analysis should
illuminate the extent to which current databases over and under
estimate current TBI estimates. If validated, the new case
definition will be communicated to health care professionals and
researchers.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
