The Community Balance and Mobility Scale is a valid and reliable outcome measure for the ambulatory individual with traumatic brain injury.

The results here add weight to the growing body of literature, which supports the principle of early intervention in the setting of spinal trauma and SCI.

The studies discussed in this review support the notion that early identification of factors predictive of PSS should significantly affect the course of intervention, help target individuals who would benefit most from specific types and intensities of therapy, and possibly provide better motor and functional outcomes.
