Brain injury is often called the ______________ epidemic because many of the problems that result
from a brain injury are not always readily apparent - ANSWER silent
Appropriate treatment at the right ____________, right ___________, and the right
_________________ is not readily available. - ANSWER time, dose, frequency
One negative consequence of brain injury is problems at work or school. Name three others - ANSWER 1.

Define - Aquired Brain Injury - ANSWER an injury to the brain that in not hereditary, congenital,
degenerative, or included by birth trauma. It occurs after birth with presumed normal brain
development preceding the injury. It results in a change in neuronal activity affecting physical integrity,
the metabolic activity or the functional ability of never cells. Acquired brain injury is an umbrella
definition as it includes injuries caused by external physical forces,applied to the head, as well as internal
insults to the brain.

____________ ___________ applied to the head, as well as __________ ___________ to the brain. -
ANSWER external physical forces, internal insults
An acquired brain injury can be from traumatic ____________, traumatic ______________ or _______-
traumatic - ANSWER traumatic impact, traumatic inertial, or non traumatic
traumatic impact can be either ___________(non-penetrating) or ______________(penetrating, skull
fracture, meninges breach) - ANSWER closed or open
a traumatic inertial injury occurs with rotational/angular forces. it occurs with a non-_______________
injury when the brain moves within the skull. - ANSWER non-contact
A non-traumatic brain injury is one where there is severe reduction in ____________ flow due to
hemmorrhage or clotting - ANSWER blood
A closed head injury can be either focal or ____________ - ANSWER diffuse
A open head injury is primarily ____________ (not diffuse). Think of nail puncturing skull. - ANSWER
focal
A traumatic inertial injury is primarily ______________ or multifocal - ANSWER diffuse
A non-traumatic brain injury such as a hemmorrage can be focal or _______________ - ANSWER focal or
diffuse
What is the injury patho physiology of a traumatic impact that is closed? - ANSWER They cause brain
contusions, lacerations, intracerebral hemmorhage and diffuse axonal injury.
What is the injury patho physiology of a traumatic impact that is open - ANSWER They cause epidural
hematomas, subdural hematomas, intracerebral hemmorrhage and of course infections (cuz it is open)
, What is the injury patho physiology of a traumatic intertial injury? - ANSWER It causes diffuse axonal
injury, white matter lesions, and hemmorrhage
What is the injury path physiology of a non-traumatic interal insult - ANSWER It causes white matter
lesions and hemmorrhages
Examples of causes of a traumatic impact closed - ANSWER blast related, assults, falls, vehicular
accidents, sports accidents
Examples of causes of traumatic impact open - ANSWER gunshot, stabbing, falls, vehicular accidents,
sports accidents
Examples of causes of traumatic inertial injury (non-contact) - ANSWER Falls, vehicular accidents, sports
accidents
Examples of causes of non-traumatic internal insult - ANSWER stroke, neurotoxic poisoning,
hypoxia/anoxia, ischemia, infection, tumors
With traumatic impact injuries the head is struck by an object or an object strikes the head resulting in
either a _______________ or ________________ injury - ANSWER closed or open
A closed head injury that involves coup and countercoup injury is more ___________________ -
ANSWER diffuse
Traumatic inertial injuries must be _____________feet or greater. Thinking falling or car accident. they
are non-contact injuries - ANSWER 6ft
Would electric shock cause traumatic or non-traumatic brain injury - ANSWER non-traumatic
A primary injury is either traumatic or ________-______________________ - ANSWER non traumatic
A ________________ injury correlates injury to long term outcome. It also helps determine severity of
injury and gives survellance data. - ANSWER primary
