Vietnam Head Injury Study Phase III: A 30-Year Post-Injury Follow-Up Study
Abstract
Implementation of the Vietnam Head Injury Study Phase III (VHIS3) has begun. In Oct 2002, an understanding was reached with the National Naval Medical Center (NNMC), and the necessary administrative and testing space has been obtained. We received approval for a funding supplement to cover the costs of the CT and EEG procedures and reports. We have hired all study staff. A protocol to study subjects at NNMC has been approved. The test battery to be administered to the participants has been finalized, a database created, eligible participants have been contacted to send an updated address to us with good compliance, programmatic procedures for the evaluation week have been developed, equipment purchased, and staff is being trained. Thus, we are only awaiting final protocol approvals and inter-agency cooperative agreement signatures before we begin to directly contact and invited participants to be studied.
