What is a Traumatic Brain Injury?

A TBI results from a violent blow or jolt to the head, which causes damage to the brain’s tissue. Brain injuries include concussions, contusions, hematomas, diffuse axonal injuries, skull fractures, and penetrating injuries. In some cases, a CT scan will not show the trauma to the brain’s tissue, so detection of a TBI can be challenging. If a TBI is not identified shortly after the incident, the timeline for recovery can be slower.

The Importance of Prompt Medical Treatment for TBIs

It is always important to seek medical care if you believe you have suffered a TBI. In an emergency situation, treatment for traumatic brain injuries focuses on preventing additional damage to the head, neck, or spinal cord; ensuring the victim has sufficient oxygen and blood supply; and maintaining blood pressure. Emergency surgery may be required to remove clotted blood that puts pressure on the brain tissue, to stop a brain bleed, to address a skull fracture, or to create a skull window to relieve pressure. Immediate medical care gives you the best chance for recovery. From experience, JHC’s Wichita brain injury attorneys can tell you that it also helps you achieve fair compensation in your personal injury claim.

Causes of Brain Injuries

Numerous types of accidents can cause an individual to sustain a traumatic brain injury. TBIs are often caused by semi-truck accidents, car accidents, bike accidents, pedestrian accidents, defective products, slip and fall accidents, and motorcycle accidents. If you have sustained a TBI that was not your fault, JHC’s Wichita personal injury lawyers will fight for fair compensation on your behalf.

Traumatic brain injuries are generally categorized as open head injuries or closed head injuries. A closed head injury occurs when there is an impact to the head, causing the brain to move and hit the skull. An open head injury happens when the force to the head is significant enough to break the skull open. Open head injuries often result in death.

There are several different types of brain injuries within those general categories, including:
