Alcohol and traumatic disability.

Abstract: Corrigan (1995) reviewed the literature on alcohol and TBI and found that preinjury alcohol abuse or dependence ranged from 16 to 66%. The most rigorous studies and those conducted in rehabilitation settings produced the highest prevalence rates, between 44 and 66%. People with SCI reported greater than average preinjury alcohol consumption, and 35-49% reported a history of significant alcohol problems (Bombardier & Rimmele, 1998a).Much larger studies of preinjury alcohol problems have been conducted on genera… Show more

“…The National Registry of Evidence-based Programs and Practices (http://www.nrepp.samhsa.gov) and the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (http://www.nice.org.uk) maintain vetted lists of EBTs. Clinicians should consult sources of expert opinion regarding how to adapt EBTs to people with SCI, for example in the areas of coping with disability, 41 sexual dysfunction, 42 substance use, 20 and psychotherapy in general. 43 Psychologists, social workers, and counselors may also be responsible for the design, management, evaluation, monitoring and coordination of team-implemented psychosocial interventions.…”
