A complete team approach
The symptoms of TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) are not necessarily dramatic and may involve conditions as unremarkable as a simple headache. There are several different types of traumatic injuries that may damage the brain. A skull fracture occurs when the bone of the skull cracks or breaks. A depressed skull fracture occurs when pieces of the broken skull press into the tissue of the brain. This can cause bruising of the brain tissue, called a contusion. A contusion can also occur in response to shaking of the brain within the confines of the skull. Damage to a major blood vessel within the head may cause a hematoma, or heavy bleeding into or around the brain.
Other warning signs of TBI include nausea, seizures, confusion or other cognitive problems, a change in personality, depression, irritability, and other emotional and behavioral problems. Although the symptoms of TBI may be subtle, the effects of TBI are anything but subtle. The consequences of TBI can range from a mild concussion to permanent physical, cognitive, and behavioral / emotional impairments, seizure disorders, paralysis, coma and death.
Head injuries may result from a number of different causes, with the leading causes being motor vehicle crashes, slips and falls, sports-related injuries strokes, anoxia, tumors, viral infections, degenerative diseases, near drowning, and other conditions not involving external force.
