MINNEAPOLIS TBI LAWYER-TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY LAW FIRM
TBIs, TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURIES, ARE OF TWO MAJOR TYPES.
The three major types of traumatic brain injuries are (1) open traumatic brain injuries (with a fracture or penetrating wound of the skull) and (2) closed head injury (traumatic brain injury without fracture or penetration of the skull).
TBI’S, TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURIES, HAVE DIFFERENT DEGREES OF SEVERITY.
The medical literature classifies TBIs in three categories: (1) Severe, (2) Moderate, and (3) Mild. It has been said by highly respected medical authorities that there is no such thing as a mild TBI- and that there is no such thing as “recovery” from a mild TBI.
CONCUSSIONS ARE TBIs.
A concussion is clearly a traumatic brain injury. Some authorities define a concussion as a “mild TBI”. Other authorities recognize that many concussions result in very significant permanent residuals and disability.
CAR ACCIDENTS ARE A LEADING CAUSE OF TBIs.
Without any doubt, car accidents are a leading cause of TBIs. The “whiplash” forces of a car accident can cause “acceleration/deceleration” forces that cause the brain to violently impact the inside surfaces of the brain, causing a TBI.
