Brain Injury Information
Of all the types of personal injury, those to the brain are among the most likely to result in permanent disability or death. Each year in the United States , over a million and a half people suffer some type of injury that causes trauma to the brain.
At least half of these traumatic injuries to the brain are a result of some type of traffic incident. In California alone last year, for example, drunk drivers caused 4,120 traffic related fatalities.
Estimates of traumatic brain injury ( TBI ) incidence, severity, and cost reflect the enormous losses to individuals, their families, and society from these injuries. In fact, e very 15 seconds someone suffers a traumatic brain injury. Of the 1,000,000 people treated in hospital emergency rooms each year, 50,000 die and 80,000 become permanently disabled because of traumatic brain injury ( TBI ).
Some of the most common types of brain injuries include:
- Concussion (closed head injury)
- Diffuse Axonal Injury
- Brain Contusion (brain bruise)
- Coup-Contrecoup Injury
- Second Impact Syndrome (recurrent traumatic brain injury)
- Penetration Injury
- Locked In Syndrome
- Shaken Baby Syndrome
Traumatic brain injury is more common than many people believe. It can happen in contact sports, for example. You don’t have to be knocked unconscious to sustain a brain injury. Mild traumatic brain injury, such as a concussion, can damage the brain at the cellular level.
In fact, an estimated 250,000 concussions and an average of eight deaths due to head injuries occur every year in football alone. Twenty percent of football players suffer concussion during a single football season, and some more than once.
There are various causes for traumatic brain injury, many of which are the result of the negligence of another person. The main sources of brain injury are automobile accidents, falls, violence, and sports injuries. The following are some statistics regarding the main causes of brain injuries:
- Auto accidents can seriously injure drivers, passengers, pedestrians, motorcyclists and bicyclists.
- 25% of brain injuries are caused by falls, especially young children and the elderly.
- Approximately 20% of traumatic brain injuries are the result of some form of violence. In fact, about 10% of TBI 's are the result of gun violence and 44% of brain injury deaths are caused by gunshot wounds.
- Sports injuries account for 3% of traumatic brain injuries, although many sports related brain injuries go unreported each year.
Brain injury may also result from domestic abuse, Shaken Baby Syndrome, physical assault, stroke, and on-the-job accidents.
Children and adults of all ages are at risk for traumatic brain injuries. In 2001, an estimated 3,000 children between the ages of birth and fourteen died as the result of traumatic brain injuries.
