An Introduction to Brain Trauma
Traumatic brain injury is generally associated with long-term medical, cognitive, emotional and behavioral changes. The treatment pathway is highly dependent on the severity of the trauma, but can follow a surgical, pharmacological and/or rehabilitative pathway. Ongoing research to understand the mechanisms and processes that underlie recovery, and the development of better diagnostic tools, may help to improve patient outcomes.
