A brain injury occurs when an outside force impacts the head hard enough to cause the brain to move within the skull or when a penetrating object causes direct damage. According to the Brain Injury Association of America (BIAA), the most common causes of brain injury are:
Brain injuries are generally classified into three categories: mild, moderate, and severe. So-called "mild" brain injury victims may suffer a period of unconsciousness, confusion, or disorientation. Residual effects may include persistent headaches, anxiety, irritability, and depression. “Moderate” brain injuries may result in the permanent impairment of cognitive, motor, or sensual functions. “Severe” brain injuries may cause psychosis, coma, or wrongful death.
Additionally, head and traumatic brain injury may increase the risk of epilepsy and conditions such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and other brain disorders that become more prevalent with age.
According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), the cost of traumatic brain injury in the United States is roughly $48.3 billion annually. Hospital expenses account for $31.7 billion of this figure and the cost of fatal brain injuries is $16.6 billion. Additionally, brain injury victims typically suffer years of rehabilitation expenses and lost productivity.
