Summary

Acquired brain damage generates motor, cognitive, behavioral and emotional deficits. Neurorehabilitation aims to reduce these deficits and develop compensatory strategies that increase the person's functionality. However, the success of neurorehabilitation process varies and is influenced by the type of injury, the characteristics of the patient or the treatment received. Despite all the studies about patient characteristics, psychological aspects currently continue to be a field to be explored.

The main objective of the study is to study the psychological characteristics of people with brain damage. Secondary objectives include analyzing its link with other indicators, exploring possible differences depending on the etiology of brain damage, assessing its evolution during neurorehabilitation and exploring its prognostic value.

To carry out this prospective longitudinal observational study, adult patients with acquired brain damage to less than 6 months of evolution who present an objective cognitive alteration will be selected. Patients with a neurological or psychiatric history will be excluded.

Patients included in the study will be administered computerized questionnaires at the beginning of the neurorehabilitation program. The same questionnaires will be administered again 2 months later. In those hospitalized patients who subsequently continue outpatient treatment, a third administration will be performed (2 months after the second administration).
