questionnaire bi-annually for three to
six years. Respondents to this study will

Center (NHRC) to carry out the research
study ‘‘TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY,
POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS
DISORDER, AND LONG-TERM
QUALITY OF LIFE OUTCOMES IN
INJURED TRI-SERVICE U.S. MILITARY

by the office of Congressionally Directed
Medical Research Programs (CDMRP) to
conduct this longitudinal
epidemiological study. The NHRC team
will collect information about physical
and psychological health from members
of the U.S. Armed Forces that have been
injured in overseas contingency
operations by administering a voluntary
web, phone, or mail survey bi-annually
for a period of three (3) to six (6) years.
In all cases, informed consent will be
obtained prior to survey administration.
The information collected will be used
to ascertain the long-term effects of
traumatic brain injury (TBI),
Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD),
and other injuries on quality of life
outcomes. Pinpointing the effects of
these injuries will allow for the
development of more effective
treatments and early interventions in
the management of TBI, PTSD, and
other injuries sustained by U.S. military
personnel in overseas contingency
operations.
