5. Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is
an insult to the brain not of a degenerative or
congenital nature caused by an external physical
force, that may produce a diminished or altered state of
consciousness resulting in an impairment of cognitive
abilities or physical functioning. It can also result in the
disturbance of behavioral or emotional functioning, may
be temporary or permanent and cause partial or total
functional disability or psychosocial maladjustment

TBI by Age
• Adults aged 75 years and older have the highest rates of
TBI-related hospitalization and death
•
TBI by Gender
• In every age group, TBI rates are higher for males than for
females
• Males aged 0 to 4 years have the highest rates of TBIrelated emergency department visits, hospitalizations, and
deaths

13. The following are some injuries that may occur at the
time of traumatic injury:
•
Axonal Shearing (diffuse axonal injury): damage to individual
nerve cells (neurons)
o
•
Contusion: bruising of the brain tissue
o
•
Often caused by small blood vessel leaks as a result from a
fall or car accident
Coup-Contrecoup: shaking of the brain back and forth within the
confines of the skull
o
•
Often seen in car accidents as a result from the brain
bouncing against the wall of the skull
Often caused when the head slams into a dashboard then
jerked back hitting the headrest during a car accident
Skull Fracture: break in one or more of the bones that make up
the skull
2013

17. The following are some injuries that may occur after
the trauma:
•
Hematomas: Accumulation of blood or a collection of blood
trapped in the tissue of the brain.
•
Increased Intracranial Pressure: Pressure inside the skull that
builds as the brain swells.
•
Seizure Disorder: Disorderly discharge or electrical activity in
the nerve cells of the brain.

The Brain is comprised of nerve cells
o
Consistency similar to spaghetti
•
The Brain fits tightly within the skull
o
Surrounded by fluid called cerebrospinal
•
The Brain is divided into four lobes
o
Frontal
o
Occipital
o
Parietal
o
Temporal
