In this lesson I start off talking about traumatic brain injury nursing considerations. There is a lot to cover when talking about TBI and this lesson starts the discussion with a quick overview of some of the key points to understanding traumatic brain injury.
Much of the information covered, from the etiology, to classification, to explaining the different types of head injuries, primary brain injuries, and what exactly secondary brain injuries are, are being covered very quickly to serve as an introduction and foundation for future lessons in which I will go more in depth in to these different areas.
My goal is to have to feel comfortable with the overall concepts and terms that will be used for the next few lessons moving forward.

    Today is the 12th anniversary of my accident. When I was 17, I was hit by a van taxi while crossing the street on a green light. I suffered severe TBI, I stayed in a coma for 9 days and was in critical condition for 72hrs. The doctors were preparing my family for my passing because it was highly unlikely that I would survive however I did. I lost 50% of my eyesight and deal with migraines, back aches and confusion. I lived in hell for 8 years following the accident but I didn’t give up. The doctors told me I would never walk again and last year I did a handstand. Time heals all, miracles exist and the best part about being human is how resilient we are. Keep moving forward, you are more than what happened to you. You are enough.

    Went over a 4 to 7½ story cliff. Coma for 24 days. Brain bleed. When I awoke didn't know how to do anything physically but my long-term memory stayed intact so I could remember doing all of it. After I woke up I was discharged from the hospital in 29 days. No headache's ever before or after injury. Back to work and finished with outpatient therapy 9 months after discharge. No residual effects so far. Going on 34 years since accident. Life went back to normal for me.

Its been 3 years since I hit my head and I still struggle to get through daily life with my TBI. Its a crazy feeling not knowing what's going on inside your body but after learning about TBI'S and the side affects it has, you start to relearn your body and learn how to deal with the constant Pain and dis comfort. For anyone dealing with a TBI out there, know your not alone!

    He is doing pretty good. Miraculously. He woke up after 2 weeks with some extreme confusion. For the first week, he was unsure of the year, he wasn’t able to identify he was in the hospital, and he had to do some extensive PT to regain his ability to walk. The six months he has been home have been quite the journey as well. He is so convinced of things being different before he go into his accident. He thinks his wife has another sister, another daughter, he thinks he has 4 cars she sold while he was in “jail”, and he genuinely believe some doctor cast a spell that made him lose vision in one eye. Other than that, he’s alive, and that’s all we asked for when we didn’t know if he’d wake.

    Suffered a TBI when I was 5. Every now and then I like to try and learn as much about TBI as I can to help me understand it more. My mechanism of injury was a fall from a horse bucking when I was 5. Idk if it was blunt or penetrating. It's multiple small scarring of the brain which is complicated to know which kind.

    When I was 5, a 5 pound weight fell off the top of my dad's garage shelves - not sure how high they were, but it fell a few feet, at least. It also came from the top of a box, so probably more like 4 feet. I think I actually remember the moment just before it landed on my head. The next thing I remember is being in my neighbor's van, and someone putting a towel on my head, which immediately turned blood red. The last thing I remember from that day was waking up while getting stitched up, and then passing out again. I had an extremely dysfunctional family, and have had a number of mild TBIs, too. I have had a lot of social and mental health issues throughout my life, and I've really worked on them, but it has always felt like a war I can't win. I didn't think the could be related to my head injuries until I was 35. When I told my PCP and them, she just said, "Yep, that makes sense." It's been really rough, too. In grad school, I wrote a paper about how something about me changed when I was a kid. Everyone loved me one day, and the next I couldn't do anything right. Even after examining what I went through as a kid, I still didn't connect the dots back to my first TBI. I'm pretty sure that my parents just pretended that there wasn't anything wrong so I wouldn't feel different, and I just assumed that the weight that landed right where my frontal lobe is didn't have any affect on my brain. I wish I could go back and get the help that 5 year old me needed to grow up without the problems I'm just now starting to understand.

    Wow sad, a serious injury and doesn't sound like you got what you needed. They're always learning about new stuff with the brain so maybe they didn't know. I had a concussion when I was little, not sure exactly age. Then at 14 had a seizure and diagnosed with Epilepsy . Had many seizures until I got better about taking my medication, fell at some of those times and may have hit head again? Also car accidents. Then in mid to late 20's was strangled until loss of consciousness and a seizure, because why not add that into the fun? I'm just recently beginning to believe I may have autism which can be linked to Epilepsy. It affects every area of life, daily decisions, plans, executive function

    I have TBI and shrinking brain, my whole life I have been an active male, I live in Canada so hockey (I was a goal so pucks to the head) and lacrosse, very physical. I did search and rescue and have been in the military and seen combat. I wasn't diagnosed with TBI till this year. In the past I have had issues with my temperament, but for the most I believe I wasn't to bad. A year ago I had a kidney transplant, there was some issues during my surgery and was under for 12 hrs. About 6 months after the transplant I started to notice having a hard time concertation, forgetfulness, shakes and my moods started getting worse. At first they thought it was the meds but had to get testing done just incase it was early Alzheimer. Went it all came back it was TBI. They believe I've had TBI for awhile but the surgery activated it to the state I am now. Your video has answered a lot of questions for me cause I am on a waiting list to get into proper treatment. What do you think of stem cell therapy?

    Years ago I was a caregiver provider for a 30 year old male with "extreme" TBI. He had been in a car accident, as a passenger, on New Years Eve...the only person injured and spent over 6 years comatose. When he woke, his left side was pretty well shot. Left arm and hand crippled, left leg weak twisted, mute, eyes weak. memory long term was in and out, memory short term needed to be refreshed on a regular basis. He communicated with a box that had a keyboard, a screen, emited a tape out the end and a voice. a handy way of getting things done. We'd go to a sandwich shop and he'd hit on the waitresses with the box. He didn't let this slow him down. He said that he'd spent too much time "asleep". Had things to do. He started corresponding with a woman on the west coast and got her to fly hm out there. This was in New Hampshire. I wrote a couple of letters for him, his sister the rest. 'm writing a novel, now, with someone similar as the main character. The problem is that I need more to make"technical" information to make him credible. Any ideas?

    Bless all who are afflicted with TBIs. I had severe tbi brain hemorrhage last Autumn, from car accident. I was knocked unconcious for two days And had internal injuries, and banged up externally. Couldn't walk for a mont. My mental health has worsened post TBI, neuropathy, sickening constant migraines , intense exhausting emotional roller coaster all the time, and so tired all the time-but sleep is a luxury now.. It really does change a person, I isolated myself for this entire year because I felt hope was lost and depression/anxiety/paranoia rules my life with a fist of cold steel. Repressed memories have also been triggered out of nowhere and they are waking nightmares that invade my mind. For the past two weeks I'm on the path of getting help from several resources, I hope to have full neurological exam done and other vital treatment soon.

    I was riding my 10 speed bike down hill when I was 14 years old in 1974. My pocketbook got caught in the spokes, and I was propelled over the handle bars into my face down the sidewalk! I was unconscious for a time. Simply got stiches in my chin! They obviously didn't know about TBI back then! Anyway, about 4 years later I started to suffer seizures! My ability to recall information, and make conversation is also greatly affected! But praise GOD, I've been able to support myself and raise children with this disability! I still have difficulty with recall at will, and sometimes I cannot recall at all! Although, praise God, I haven't had seizures since 1998. God bless you all on your journey towards healing! 💜🙏💜

When she woke up in the ER, the doctor said she had a TBI, needed 60 stitches, lost her left eye and had a broken neck and back (but no paralysis). She’s learned to cope with her glass eye and broken back/neck, but her TBI as really altered her life.

I lost three teeth, suffered a right eye orbit fracture, inner ear concussions in each ear and the loss of much skin, and many stitches. I remember going for a bike ride that evening, then a vague memory of an ambulance and then being in the hospital, confused. My life was turned upside down. I went from being a successful Mechanical Engineer, to being unable to write my name. Yet my doctors told my wife I’d be fine in a few weeks. In addition, even though unable to drive, my employer forced me back to work much sooner than I should have. Personally changes, severe mental fatigue, confusion, memory loss, headaches, seizures and more all occurred within 3 months of the injury. I was emotionally crushed by the medical community as I was told by a neurologist; “I doubt if you even had an injury and if you did, it’s not near as serious as you say”. I was accused of faking it all, even though we had photos that showed severe facial damage, EMT reports and ER records. I struggled to work for years post injury until the daily head pain and mental fatigue made work impossible, along with serious suicide thoughts. Ironically I now like to write, where before I despised writing. 32 years later, almost no one in the medical community cares. I’m confused, crushed with daily head pain, severe mental fatigue and increasing memory issues. I am lost! 😢

    I was hit by a car when I was 13 and had trauma to the back of my skull; I now experience deja vu every week. I immediately forget but remember every detail a year later. Even details of when I was as young as 1 years old. I never had an MRI/CT when I was hit, just an xray. Nothing was broken according to the x-ray, but the only brain imaging expert had his license pulled for extortion. I never did get any other medical imaging done since my accident. I am 49 now and am experiencing deja-vu weekly, monthly and sometimes will go two months without anything abnormal. I can read something and remember it immediately. I can read an article in the newspaper or a word in a book and forget it the next day. A year later, I can remember every detail of the newspaper and book and it's contents.

Unfortunately I lost my best friend he died on impact . His side of the car the left side was completely under of the tractor and trailer . My side the right side did not go under so I survived. Doctors told my mom I was going to be a vegetables for life . I was never going to move from this bed . And boom woke up 12 days later . And I do everything I did back then just can’t drink . It’ll kill me ..... literally.

My doctors tell me the odds of me living from the impact and my face being torn off should have, alone, killed me (which it did). Still, add in the SAH and my odds were "less than zero" said one doctor. He was crying when he told me how lucky I am to be alive and that I shouldn't be alive; I told him, "Yes, I should be alive!"

    when i was 14 i had a severe traumatic brain injury. It was to my frontal lobe. I am now almost 20, and it still affects my everyday life. Im in college now. In high school I was able to get through classes and life, but college changed all of that. I have pretended that that part of my life never happened to be, so I never allowed myself to believe that I was disabled. But I am, I see that every day when imin class, and when everyone can keep up with the teacher. My mind has a rally hard time comprehending difficult topics, and so i need to go really slow. It makes me wonder if the injury triggered the mental health issues i have now too. The mind fascinated me, and i know that i will be a neurosurgeon. Since i was 14, it has been my one true calling.

    Thanks for that overview, it kind of tied things together. About 40 yrs ago I had a car accident and TBI and then surgery for an AVM and then to install a drain/shunt. Stressful. Took a year or two to recover and was told I wouldn't walk or work again. I was treated like a child (stupid child). Anyhow that motivated me and I built myself up then got employed (eventually) representing different companies traveling internationally working on their equipment. Presently work at a National Laboratory. Did fine till I got married fairly recently (mistake) and had a couple of seizures due to anxiety, sleeplessness, and after some alcohol consumption. Separated, no more alcohol, getting better. Lonely, nobody to share with. Kinda funny, years ago riding my dirt bike, hard, and went over a cliff and broke my pelvis but had on a very good helmet that took some damage (landed on rocks) but zero damage to head. Still wear a good helmet when I bike today. Anyhow, I could really use some camaraderie and support. Any way to connect to TBI support groups? Who's out there?

Then we flipped again and the ground and car crushed my head again and knocked me out. Im told after that my body would fly out half way and right before we hit the ground I slipped back in. 18 years later I’m starting to have issues again with memory, speech, limbs give out, throwing up randomly, walking like I’m drunk and few other things.

    5 years ago at 19 and a week after my mother passed from cancer my friend was pulling me down a hill on his bike when I was on my skateboard. Lost balance fell backwards, back of head hit the floor boom. Cracked skull, loss of fluid and a brain swell. It’s hard but gets better guys. Thanks for this family in the comments.

    I am a direct impact survivor from a motor vehicle accident/MVA, of a pickup truck impacting my side of the vehicle at 53mph. My GCS score was 3. Mainly right side injury, with some fragments of or shards of skull placing themselves in the left side of my brain. My jaw was broken, all ribs broke, collapsed lungs, pseudoanurism of my aorta, and bilateral pelvic fractures/torn sciatic nerve on my right side. I have upper left spasticity, and H.O./heterotrophic ossification in my left shoulder, arm and hand. This occurred on 03/25/2006. Thankfully the ICU that treated me had a Licox tool/machine to help relieve intracranial pressure. I walk with a cane, and see a chiropractor twice a week, and workout (walking, stretching, body weight squats/deadlifts, planks, etc…). I’m currently employed with a nonprofit who has contracts with the government while employing the disabled population. Through the 8-months of rehab, (after I woke up from a 6-week coma, and transitioned through 3-different rehabs until my family found the best option), I’ve learned things about my TBI that are still held onto by me. This is one of those experiences that, I would like to recommend to anyone who has the opportunity, lol… in all seriousness, I feel that, through relearning all of the basics in life, after having lived for 31 years, (my 31st birthday happened while in coma), I have an understanding that is greater than what I believe I would have if I was not injured. It seems as though I have a more nuanced understanding than the majority of folks who I interact with. Then I remember that I have a head injury, and I accept. I accept that fact, and remain determined to live the best life that I am capable of. We’re all living a life that is so profound, that from my perspective, it appears that almost everyone else shows signs of trauma. The majority of the trauma that we inflict, is typically from internal choices/voices that we choose to hear, ignore, or listen very carefully to. This is what I believe is the root cause to the majority of our suffering. The meaning of life is to find enjoyment in all that we do. The best way to find enjoyment in the ‘mundane,’ is to reframe the situation, alter the perspective from which we are observing the outside world. The more ironic point of this, is that we all have the power to do this, by recognizing that it’s, “all in our heads.” Recognize as much as you can, with a trust in your subconscious mind to be able to communicate with our conscious mind when we need the information that the subconscious has figured out for us. Trust in the processing of the mind and human consciousness.

    My father last week had a stroke and during the stroke fell and hit his head on the floor so hard he had a midline shift and blood coming from his ears. On top of that he has covid. We are currently back and forth from the ICU hoping he wake up.......edit. He didn't wake up and covid decided it was going to take him and did so. Slipped into a deeper coma....a glascow of 3 and covid shut his kidneys down. We had to let him go at some point as per his wishes on paper prior to all this but we definitely tried everything medically possible. RIP DAD

    In a car accident I went head first through the windshield at 60 mph. The car flipped over a guard rail. I was ejected (no seatbelt) I should be dead. 16 staples in my head but this was 25 years ago and my side effects get worse every year. The vision problems and dizzy spells are the worse but also a lot of mood issues among other things. The hospital was absolutely rude to me, slammed staples in my head and sent me home because they THOUGHT I was a drunk driving. Although I had drank I was not the driver. How sad, I didn't know they actually treated people badly while they were dying in the hospital but they do. I refuse all hospitals and doctors now, with good reason

    Get an MRI Scan done at least to be sure for peace of mind, and if theres anything the doctors notice, hopefully you can link with neurologists that can work with you to set you a wellness plan. Im 22 on 11/15/17 i fell on my face bombing a hill skating and suffered a TBI as well as Temporal Lobe Epilepsy. Right when i popped up my nose was broke and my face was covered in lacerations. I was staining my sweater it was disgusting. I never considered how many TBIs take people so soon after. I was lucky, even on 2/8/18 i had another more severe seizure that almost took me. I have personality change too. Best thing i could say brother is if you can afford an MRI with insurance, certainly get one at least for that peace of mind. Stay well !

    My 1st head trauma happened at 8 years old. I tried to pickup the shovel by stepping on the scoop which came up fast and almost knocked me out... The handle hit me directly or square in my forehead... The second incident happened a few years later when I ran backwards into a large tree trying to catch a ball.. I hit the back of my head square in the middle backside which almost knocked me out... The 3rd incident happen a couple of years later being a teenager at that time... I was running backwards quickly when I tripped and fell backwards hitting my head on a manhole cover. I ended up sometime time later that day laying in my bed, not knowing home I returned back home??? I did have a concussion that day but, didn't receive any medical care. I am now 71cyears old and over the years the main loss of memory seems to be my only symptom...

    I have headaches almost every day so I was doing research on TBI 2 try & find out if my tbi injury from 1969 had anything 2 do with my headaches & came across ur video. When I was 3 yrs old, I stepped out from behind a large pile of leaves on the side of the road that i was hiding behind right in front of a moving car. There was no time 4 him 2 stop 2 keep from hitting me. The car hit me on the left side of my head behind my left ear. I died 3 times - once in my mama's arms otw 2 the hospital then twice @ the hospital. They got me back, but i was in a coma for 6 months.The doctors were telling my parents that i wasn't gonna live but if i did live, i'd be a vegetable for the rest of my life. Changing me, feeding me, wiping drool off my chin bc i couldn't swallow, & 4get about me gettin married or having kids. Well, HERE I AM!!!! 57 yr old grandmother of 2!!! Mother of 1 daughter. I went thru 11th grade in school. Got my GED in 1991. My daughter was born in 1988. So!! Back 2 my question..... Can the tbi i got in 1969 from being hit in the head by a car be causing me 2 have headaches? I am wheelchair-bound, cannot walk, can only use my left arm/hand, have feeling throughout my body & am very creative & poetic.

What he did caused me to have a tbi and my brain was bleeding out. And I dont really remember none of it because I was 3 and now Im 15. I had to be put in a coma and had to get a feeding tube because I didnt know how to eat. I had to go to rehab and learn everything because I couldnt do anything.

    2018 I was involved in a motorcycle accident I got cut off and they slammed on their brakes I was writing a 950 lb Harley with nowhere to go I ended up clipping the right rear quarter panel and being thrown off my bike, as I was picking myself up off the freeway I happen to get run over by a truck I caught the tire with my head and I suffered damage to my frontal lobe my temporal lobe my occipital lobe and the back of my brain, they had to perform a craniectomy to allow for brain swelling bleeding and cerebral spinal fluid, I now have a plastic plate in my head, a VP shunt, partial paralysis in my left side, and I am now deemed legally blind because I have extremely low vision. But with that being said I am trying all that I can to get back to work and one of the biggest struggles I had to deal with was being intubated for 7 months with a trachea in my neck, they wouldn't give me physical therapy so I had to teach myself how to eat, how to drink, how to change my clothes, how to walk, how to shower, basically everything. The neurosurgeon and the neurologist said it would take at least six to nine years for me to get some semblance of my life back. But do shear Force and determination I did it in 9 months. Believe it or not I am currently working on getting back to work if that makes any sense, they didn't think I was going to live through the night and here I am working with the chop saw a drill and impact driver belt sander drill press wood lathe and not to mention since February of 2019 I have done 10 brake jobs on 10 different vehicles, I'm currently going through a divorce because when I was in my metaphorical deathbed my wife was in somebody else's bed with her ankles to her ear lobes and she conceived his child. In all honesty her doing that has given me hope and freedom. I have a lot of things that have happened since 2018 that have changed my life for the worst, but as long as there's air in my lungs and blood in my veins I have to make the best of what I have and I am going to make damn sure that I do. Thank you for making this video and giving me some clarity on my injury because when I was in the state that I was in I had no say in my medical proceedings and I was completely unaware of what was happening because of the medically induced, they had me in and all the opioids for the pain. So seeing videos like this are very good for somebody in my position so I have a better understanding of what I have to deal with and live with, sorry if there is any grammatical or punctual errors and what I wrote here, because of my vision I have to use talk to text.

    I’m an auto injury specialist, so I deal with auto accidents and the effects they have on the body. Most folks do not understand that it’s the rapid deceleration that causes injuries, airbags to deploy, & such. I’ve interviewed thousands of people over the years.

    Wish I could see you..I was hit 5 times in 18 months..life is messed up for me now, still trying to get help, I believe they missed alot, said cervical strain. It's SO MUCH more...I know everything changed with the first one, and a rear end hit knocked me out for a bit..everything just got worse after that, now years later..I am definitely not the same.😢

    Ih yeah, I used to punch my self until I’d start crying. But I haven’t in about a month, that’s probably because my mom saw bruises and I didn’t like pretending that I had no idea why I had bruises on my face... So the moral of the story is not to punch yourself if you don’t like lying lol. (All jokes aside, this is a true story).

    somya mishra I’d recommend meditation. I don’t know all of the stuff about it, but what I do know and mostly why I started meditating is because you can have lucid dreams easily and it is really healthy and stuff. lol I sound so uninformed but seriously, meditating is, as they say “that’s where it’s at”.

    I fell 25 feet from a ladder landed on my feet. My left Tibia was spiral fractured/Fibula snapped/Malliolus was crushed as was the Talus. My right foot folded in half forwards (lisfranc fracture) woke up on the road 2 years later i elected for a below knee amputationof my left leg. T.B.I...I suffered brain damage that wasn't identified for some time after, vivid nightmares, memory problems complete personally change all was put down to PTSD. 15 YEARS LATER I began having problems with my kidneys, retain water edima everywhere I ballooned in weight to 25 stone (152KG). My Pituitary gland had stopped working properly also diagnosed with an Autoimmune disease, is it all connected? My bp has been steadily returning to a safe rate from Dangerous Hypertension. The human body truly is miraculous. Thanx for listening.x

    When I was 3, my dad hit me in the forehead with a can of tomato sauce, that has left a scar on the bridge of my nose for 18 years. I’m not certain on the velocity of the can, but I’ve always had difficulties functioning on a social level. I never got treatment for the injury and only went to see a psychiatrist 2 weeks ago where I was diagnosed with ADHD, which I have read has similar symptoms to damage to the prefrontal cortex. I was also ran over with a bike as a toddler and only really remember an EMT talking about my head being ran over.
