Understanding brain injuries

It can get confusing when we talk about brain injuries. That is because there is such a wide spectrum of severity for these, but they are all linked together because of how they can affect us. In this country, there are more than 5.3 million people living with disabilities caused by brain injuries. Some of the main causes of traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are:

  • Car Accidents
  • firearms incidents
  • sports incidents
  • Falls and falling objects
  • and other types of violence

We also know that mistakes made by medical professionals can cause serious brain injuries. These mistakes can include:

  • Surgical errors
  • Healthcare-acquired infections
  • A lack of oxygen to the brain
  • Birth Injuries
  • Medication Mistakes

The effects of brain injuries can be temporary or permanent. They often include:

  • Memory loss
  • Difficulties speaking
  • Cognitive impairment
  • Loss of bodily function
  • Organ failure
  • Emotional or psychological problems
  • Depressions and anxiety

Those who suffer from brain injuries are sometimes unable to return to work or enjoy the lifestyle they were accustomed to. In many cases, a brain injury victim will need long-term care, either in their home or in a skilled living facility.

What about concussions?

There are approximately 3.8 million sports-related concussions each year in the United States, and a majority of those happen to kids and teens who play contact sports. Concussions are considered mild TBIs, but that can be misleading because a mild concussion can turn into a major TBI.

If these injuries are not properly diagnosed and treated, a person can suffer a subsequent blow to the head before they are healed. This can lead to a cumulative effect that can cause further injuries. People can sustain permanent brain damage due to concussions. It is vital that coaches treat all head injuries seriously.
