Traumatic brain injuries are one of the most debilitating accidental injuries and often result in serious injuries and death. These injuries usually occur as the result of an external physical force impacting the brain. According to the Brain Injury Association of America, a traumatic brain injury occurs every 21 seconds in the US and over five million Americans currently live with disabilities resulting from TBI.
Common accidents that lead to traumatic brain injuries include:
- A blow to the head
- Gun Injury
- Motor vehicle accident
- Slip and Fall
- Sports injury
- Shaken Baby Syndrome, where an abuser violently shakes a young child
Medical bills from traumatic brain injuries can be astronomical and the long-term effects can be devastating.
