In western countries, injuries remain the leading cause of death in young adults (Jennett B. Epidemiology of head injury. J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry 1996; 60: 362-369). Worldwide, injuries are estimated to account for 15% of the burden of death and disability, and are projected to account for 20% in 2020 (Ad Hoc Committee on Health Research Relating

AbstractMild traumatic brain injury accounts for 1% to 2% of emergency department visits in the United States. Up to 15% of these patients will have an acute intracranial lesion identified on head computed tomography; less than 1% of mild traumatic brain injuries will require neurosurgical intervention.

Emergency Medicine Clinics of North America, 1996
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

Recurrent traumatic brain injury
Brain Injury, 1992This article reviews, analyses and provides commentary on the most recent literature concerning recurrent traumatic brain injury (RTBI) case histories. It is revealed that a significant proportion of TBI sufferers survive and recover most of the functions of daily living. However, relatively little is known about the epidemiology, effects, or causes of

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

Editorial: Traumatic brain injury
Journal of Neurosurgery, 2013Much has been made in recent years of a volume effect in most aspects of medical care. Evidence for a volume effect has been noted in a variety of surgical procedures and medical treatments. This robust effect has been used both by specialty boards for certification and by third-party payers for reimbursement. It comes as no surprise, therefore, that a
