Brain Injuries
Serious brain injuries can happen in two ways, by blunt force –
called traumatic brain injury, or by a lack of oxygen called anoxic
brain injuries. Brain injuries can cause paralysis, unconsciousness and
even death.
Anoxic Brain Injuries
Anoxic Brain injuries occur when the supply of oxygen is cut off to
the brain. This often takes place in swimming and diving accidents as
well as in surgery complications and other accidents where the supply of
oxygen is cut off to the point of causing brain damage.
Traumatic Brain Injuries
Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI) occurs by sudden acceleration or
deceleration of the brain. These types of brain injuries usually take
place when the skull comes in contact with a hard surface or object.
This can lead to tearing of the nerves, bruising of the tissue against
the skull, brain stem injuries, and swelling. Swelling is one of the
bodies healing functions, but can cause major problems in the brain
cavity because the brain has nowhere to move. Severe swelling can cause
further obstruction to the brain. Traumatic Brain Injuries often occur
in vehicle collisions, motorcycle crashes, and sports injuries.
These are some typical conditions that can result from Brain
injuries:
-
Paralysis

Loss of voluntary
