Discover new insights in injury prevention with our study, "Using Integrated Clinical Data and Work-related Traumatic Brain Injury Narratives to Inform Sex-specific Injury Prevention." By merging numbers with personal stories, we explore circumstances of work-related traumatic brain injury among male and female workers using the P-E-O framework. Our goal is to identify unique risk factors and develop tailored strategies that promote safer workplaces for everyone. Join us in making a meaningful gender difference in preventing these injuries and improving safety for all workers!

Learning Objectives:

Analyze how occupational activities and environmental factors contribute to the risk of traumatic brain injury (TBI) in the workplace (wr-TBI), emphasizing sex-based differences
Highpoint the significance of combining qualitative and quantitative research methods to gain thorough comprehension of sex-specific trends in wr-TBI
Compare the Person-Environment-Occupation (PEO) factors for male and female workers at the time of injury
Identify key implications for primary prevention strategies
Think prevention to reduce the burden of TBI on people, families, and communities
