2. DEFINITION

3. Traumatic Brain Injury means an acquired injury to the brain caused by an external physical force, resulting in total or partial functional disability or psychosocial impairment, or both, that adversely affects a child's educational performance.

4. The term applies to open or closed head injuries resulting in impairments in one or more areas, such as: sensory, perceptual, and motor abilities psychosocial behavior physical functions information processing speech cognition language memory attention reasoning abstract thinking judgment problem- solving

5. The term does not apply to brain injuries that are congenital or degenerative, or to brain injuries induced by birth trauma

7. CAUSES

8. Common events causing traumatic brain injury include the following: -Falls

9. - Vehicle-related collisions

10. - Violence

11. - Sports injuries

12. - Explosive blasts and other combat injuries

13. CHARACTERISTICS

14. The Brain Injury Association (formerly the National Head Injury Foundation) calls TBI "the silent epidemic," because many children have no visible impairments after a head injury. Symptoms can vary greatly depending upon the extent and location of the brain injury.

15. However, impairments in one or more areas (such as cognitive functioning, physical abilities, communication, or social/behavioral disruption) are common. These impairments may be either temporary or permanent in nature and may cause partial or total functional disability as well as psychosocial maladjustment.

16.     Children who sustain TBI may experience a complex array of problems, including the following: Medical/Neurological Symptoms : speech, vision, hearing and other sensory impairment, etc. Cognitive Symptoms: decreased attention, organizational skills, and problem solving ability, etc. Behavioral/Emotional Symptoms: aggressive behavior, denial of deficits, depression, and etc. Social Skills Development: difficulties maintaining relationships, inability to restrict socially inappropriate behaviors, and etc.
