The 33 pages that link to Traumatic Brain Injury, each with the reason it gives.

• EpilepsyRelated: Brain trauma can lead to a lasting risk of unprovoked seizures.

• Intracranial pressureRelated: In severe injury, swelling or bleeding can raise pressure and threaten brain perfusion.

• Neuropsychological assessmentRelated: Assessment can describe cognitive effects and inform rehabilitation planning.

• Cerebral edemaRelated: Injury can disrupt vessels and cells, producing mixed forms of cerebral edema.

• Falls in older adultsRelated: A fall can cause head impact and serious brain injury, even without a skull fracture.

• Improvised explosive deviceRelated: Blast exposure can injure the brain even when external wounds are limited.

• AmnesiaRelated: Injury can cause temporary or lasting memory loss, including amnesia around the event.

• SpasticityRelated: Injury to motor pathways can leave survivors with persistent spasticity.

• Advanced Trauma Life SupportRelated: The disability assessment checks neurologic status and flags possible brain injury.

• Trauma surgeryRelated: Neurosurgical intervention may be needed when injury produces dangerous pressure or a surgically removable blood collection.

• Fluid resuscitationRelated: Avoiding hypotension is vital, and fluid selection must account for intracranial pressure and serum tonicity.

• Blast injuryRelated: Blast exposure can injure the brain through impact, acceleration, or pressure-related mechanisms.

• Executive dysfunctionRelated: Frontal and distributed network damage after injury can impair executive control.

• Trauma centerRelated: Its urgent assessment may require neurosurgical expertise and specialized monitoring.

• Skull fractureRelated: The same impact can injure brain tissue even when the fracture itself is limited.

• HemiplegiaRelated: Injury to motor regions or pathways can leave one side paralyzed.
