    What Is a Traumatic Brain Injury?

    A traumatic brain injury (TBI) is often caused by a blow to the head. A closed head injury is when the head violently hits an object, but doesn’t break the skull. An open head injury is when something pierces the skull and enters the brain. Both are considered Traumatic Brain Injuries. According to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke:

    • Half of ALL traumatic brain injuries happen during car accidents, motorcycle accidents, bike crashes or pedestrian accidents.
    • TBI is most often the result of a fall for people aged 75 and older.
    • 5 million Americans who are living with TBI today need permanent assistance.
    • 1.4 million people experience a traumatic brain injury every year.
    • 50,000 people die from head injuries every year.

    What Are the Symptoms of a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) or Head Injury?

    It can take days or even weeks for disabilities from a brain injury to fully surface. That’s why it’s so important to see a medical professional immediately after an accident, even if you don’t notice symptoms right away. The symptoms of a brain injury can include:

    • Headache
    • Confusion
    • Dizziness
    • Vomiting
    • Blurred vision
    • Behavioral changes

    • Loss of coordination
    • Slurred speech
