Individuals who suffer Traumatic Brain Injury ("TBI") are often confronted with confusing lifestyle changes not easily understood by the victim or the victim's family. Memory loss often results from traumatic brain injury, as well as problems with the ability to focus and concentrate, and complete tasks at work. Often times dramatic mood swings take place. Family members often observe that a TBI victim has become "a different person."
What Is Traumatic Brain Injury?
When the skull is seriously hit, the brain may twist within the skull. This type of brain injury is called a Diffuse Axonal Injury. After a closed brain injury, the rotation and disruption of the brain's long connecting nerve fibers can be microscopic and difficult to measure. A person can suffer a brain injury and their MRI or CT scan can be normal. It is not necessary to have been "knocked out" to suffer a brain injury. Symptoms of a brain injury can include memory loss, lack of focus and concentration, word finding problems, mood swings, personality changes, inability to make decisions, lack of coordination, and problems walking.
One of the best diagnostic tools is to have a battery of neuropsychological tests run. These tests are designed to help isolate the area of the brain affected and can pick up changes in memory and executive functioning. This testing is performed by a neuropsychologist.
Psychological status is a also often altered and people suffering from traumatic brain injury often exhibit changes personality and lifestyles.
