Resiliency and quality of life trajectories after injury

Abstract: Background Injury can greatly impact patients’ long-term quality of life. Resilience refers to an individual’s ability to positively adapt after facing stress or trauma. The objective of this study was to examine the relationship between pre-injury resiliency scores and quality of life after injury. Methods 225 adults admitted with an injury severity score > 10 but without neurological injury were included. The SF-36 was administered at the time of admission and repeated at 1, 2, 4 and 12 months after injury… Show more

“…In relation to this, to our knowledge there are no studies that establish clear relationships between resilience and sociodemographic variables such as sex or age. However, there are studies in the literature which demonstrate that there are no significant differences in relation to these sociodemographic variables regarding resilience (Zarzaur, Bell & Zanskas, 2017), which makes these results generalizable. Further, taking into account the amplitude of the sample, it can be considered that the heterogeneity in the relationships of these variables would not alter the relationships that were determined.…”

“…The 2007 guidelines recommend assessments at regular intervals of 1, 2, 4 and 12 months post-injury, allowing for examination of the four phases of trauma recovery: acute treatment phase, rehabilitation phase, adaptation phase, and stable end situation [16]. Only five studies completed follow-ups at these time points [48,49,51,64,65], although five completed assessments at four different times in the 12 months after injury [50,53,58], Fig. 5 EQ-5D, PedsQL (4.0), HUI3 and EQ-VAS scores at 12 months after injury.…”

“…Seven articles were published using data from Australia [24][25][26][39][40][41][42], with two articles related to the same study cohort from Victoria [41,42] and two articles related to the same cohort from South-East Queensland [25,26]. Five articles reported on five unique studies conducted in the United States [38,53,57,64,65]. Three articles resulted from two studies in Switzerland [43][44][45] and three articles resulted from two [59,60,62], respectively.…”

“…Some recognize that this adversity is an event (e g., acquiring a spinal cord injury, cancer diagnosis); others might consider it the result of a long-term stressor (e.g., mental-health issues or an abusive home environment). Longstanding risk factors include poverty ( Garmezy, 1993 ), being shamed or bullied ( Brown, 2006 ), homelessness ( Rew & Horner, 2003 ), and post-traumatic stress disorder ( Zarzaur et al, 2017 ), all of which are considered adversarial to the individual.…”
