2. Pre-injury Status
Before his injury this patient
was a 20 year old and a second
year full time student at an
architectural college.
He lived with a couple of friends
in a rented apartment and
enjoyed a very active social life
and had no steady relationship.
He also loved playing computer
games and could drive a
car, but did not own one.
He had no pre-existing medical
conditions and ran every
morning.
3. Present Condition
After his injury this patient is
attending revalidation therapy
and is improving. He has not
been able, however, to resume
his academic studies and
blames it on his head injury. He
lives with his family close to the
revalidation clinic. He has some
social interactions but less than
half as often as before. He
walks but cannot run like
before. He spends most of his
time playing computer games.
4. Present Condition
There are occasional disruptions
due to the injury, but he is able
to do most of the routine daily
living activities. His family can
leave him alone for more than 8
hours and he is able to get
around using public
transportation. He can handle
money and can independently
go shopping.
He is still troubled by a slight
paralysis in the right hand which
is assumed to be related to the
head injury.
