According to the Brain Injury Association of America, over 1.5 million people sustain a traumatic brain injury every year. At least 50,000 of those people will die from their brain injury while another 80,000 will have long-term disabilities associated with the injury.

This type of damage occurs when the brain is driven into the side of the skull by a sudden blow, by a shaking force, or “whiplash” and include:

Closed-head injuries, or concussions when the head violently hits an object and the skull remains intact. Concussions are not generally considered life threatening, but they can have serious consequences (especially if the victim receives repeated brain injuries).
Brain contusions - Causing bruising and tears to brain tissue.
Penetrating head injuries such as those in firearm use
Skull fractures occur when the bone(s) of the skull cracks or breaks, while depressed skull fractures are the result of the broken bones entering the brain.
Hematomas are dangerous blood clots that are pushed against the skull and cause pressure.

The leading causes of these types of injuries include automobile & pedestrian accidents, slips and falls, and firearm use.
