  • Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM)

Background:

  • CAM encompasses diverse health systems not part of conventional medicine.
  • Integrative medicine merges conventional care with evidence-based CAM.
  • Growing interest exists in integrative approaches for traumatic brain injury (TBI).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the background and current clinical data on CAM interventions for TBI.
  • To highlight the need for high-quality clinical trials in TBI integrative care.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of existing clinical data.
  • Focus on common CAM interventions used in TBI.

Main Results:

  • Paucity of high-quality clinical trials for CAM in TBI.
