Brain Injury
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) refers to a blow or a jolt to the head. A traumatic brain injury can disrupt functioning of the brain and can cause anything from a mild concussion to permanent injury, coma, and even fatalities. Each year in the U. S., roughly 1.4 million people sustain a TBI, often from firearms, slip and fall accidents, automobile accidents, and other injuries.
