Funded Activity Summary

Acquired brain injury (ABI) is a major public health issue in Australia, being the leading cause of disability. There is a benefit in clinicians implementing the best available evidence in order to attain best possible outcome after ABI. However, there are persistent gaps between research and clinical practice. This project will synthesise the existing clinical practice guidelines and understand barriers to practicing evidence-based rehabilitation so as to propose a new model of rehabilitation.
