Traumatic Brain Injury
Every year, about 1.4 million people sustain TBI's (traumatic brain injuries). A traumatic brain injury is a jolt or a blow to the head that can disrupt the brain's function. The severity of a traumatic brain injury can range from a mild concussion to severe brain damage, coma, and even death.
At least 5.3 million people in the United States live with disabilities that are a result of aTBI.
Leading causes of traumatic brain injuries:
