Your brain is tightly nestled in a confined space within your skull. When you have post-concussion swelling in your brain, it can press up against the inside of your skull, causing damage to brain cells.

AVM is usually a congenital condition, meaning it is present at birth. Although AVM can develop anywhere in the body, it is commonly seen in the brain and spine, where it can cause headaches and seizures. Understanding the risks associated with an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) rupture in the brain is crucial. Early detection and prompt medical intervention can make a significant difference.

scan for Traumatic 🧠BRAIN injury In this article, we will discuss the topic of how using technique for visualizes the structural connections that facilitate efficient brain functionto, what it basically is, and why it is important?

In many instances, you won’t have any visible signs of injury after a traumatic brain injury. However, if you lose consciousness, even for an instant, you should get medical attention as soon as possible.

Exciting times 'a-head'..... well actually the exciting times are as of today, the i-Stat TBI (traumatic brain injury) Cartridge is now available in the U.K. This test objectively assesses mild TBI at the point of care with dual brain specific biomarkers. #abbottproud #mildTBI

When someone experiences cardiac arrest, the heart, kidneys, and lungs may recover, but the brain doesn’t bounce back as easily. This vulnerability to anoxic brain injury is why we often cool patients. Monitoring and understanding energy flow in the brain is crucial.

Traumatic Brain injuries or TBIs, including concussions, refer to an alteration in brain function, caused by an external force. This test measures specific proteins present in the blood after a TBI. A negative result on this test can be used to rule out the need for a head CT scan, a common tool used to evaluate concussion. For those who test positive, this test result complements CT scans to help clinicians evaluate whether someone has a TBI. #traumaticbraininjury #istattbi #trauma #headinjury

How do I know if I have a traumatic brain injury? In the realm of injuries, Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBIs) stand out, with some being visible through observation or medical imaging tools. However, the insidious nature of TBIs becomes apparent as many remain undetected in scans, underlining the hidden complexities of these injuries.

Contractures — the permanent tightening of muscles and other tissues that causes joints to shorten and become stiff — can easily develop in the early stages of brain injury recovery. As patients emerge into consciousness, sympathetic brain activity can cause contractures and other secondary injuries. In the Rise Program at Nexus, our goal is to maximize patients’ future potential through medicine and therapies that combat inflammation and sympathetic overactivity.
