Effect of a manualizedfamily intervention followingtraumaticbraininjury or spinal cordinjury. 

Purpose: The aim is to investigate if a newlydeveloped manualizedfamily intervention for families living with traumaticinjury to the brain or spinal cordwillimprove the wholefamily'squality of life (QoL) and decreaseself-perceivedburden 

The included families willrandomlybeallocated to an intervention group or a controlgroup (ratio 1:1). The intervention groupswill receive eightstructured sessions of 90 minutesduration. The controlgroupswill receiveonepsychoeducationalgroup session of a 2 hourduration. All families willcompletequestionnaires on QoL, burden, familydynamics, problem-solvingstrategies, mental health and resilience at pre-intervention, post-intervention and at 6-month follow-up 

Design: An interventional, two-arm, randomizedcontrolledtrial (RCT).
