What are the major effects of tbi?

Head injury: Brain trauma can cause problems with memory, focus, concentration, organizational skills, ability to do mathmatical calculations, and judgement. Emotional associations include anxiety, panic attacks, depression, etc.

Wide range of effect: Severe tbi can have major effects with up to a 40 % mortality. However, the more common mild tbi may have more mild effects which may still be disconcerting to the patient. These include headache, nausea/vomiting, trouble with thinking/focusing, balance problems, blurred/double vision, ringing in the ears. New studies with MRI scans are showing subtle bruises that previously were undetected.
