Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major cause of traumatic death and disability In the US, a brain injury occurs every 7 s and results in death every 5 min ∼52,000 patients die from TBI each year TBI accounts for nearly one-third of all trauma-related deaths Common mechanisms include falls, motor vehicle accidents, and assaults In the US, most TBIs are

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) contributes significantly to the mortality and morbidity rates of traumatized patients. This article presents current concepts in the pathophysiology of TBI, including mechanisms of injury, biomolecular mediators of injury, and the occurrence of secondary injury. Emergency management, monitoring, and imaging of TBI also are

Traumatic Brain Injury in Children
Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1993Head trauma is a common occurrence in childhood, and the spectrum of its consequences is broad. Depending on the severity, type, and location of the injury, outcome may range from complete recovery in children with mild injuries to severe disability in children with more serious injuries. Potential deficits are multiple and include motor, communicative,

Coagulopathy in Traumatic Brain Injury
Neurocritical Care, 2004Abnormalities in blood coagulation, although quite common after traumatic brain injury (TBI), are of unknown significance. The authors review the clinical and pathophysiological features of this phenomenon and emphasize its origin in disseminated intravascular coagulation.

Pain and traumatic brain injury
Acute Pain, 2007For the patient who has sustained traumatic brain injury (TBI), understanding the problem and listening to and believing the patient are prerequisites to treating pain. Because the information provided may be limited, communication skills problematic, and consistency variable, the challenge of treating individuals with TBI and pain can be daunting ...

Pathophysiology of Traumatic Brain Injury
Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 2016This article provides a concise overview, at the structural and functional level, of those changes evoked by traumatic brain injury across the spectrum of the disease. Using data derived from animals and humans, the pathogenesis of focal versus diffuse brain damage is presented for consideration of its overall implications for morbidity.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) results in short and long-term mental health syndromes that can affect patients for years after injury. The mental health disorders associated with moderate to severe brain trauma have been well established, but emerging evidence clearly suggests that even mild injuries can lead to transient and/or permanent disabilities in
