Although there are a wide variety of situations in which TBI can occur, it is most likely to happen as the result of motorcycle accidents, car wrecks, slip-and-falls as well as other traumatic falls. The forms that brain injury takes when it occurs include:
- Open head injuries: this is when a part of the skull is broken through and penetrated.
- Closed head injuries: this occurs very frequently and may result in memory loss, seizures and other complications.
- Deceleration trauma: where a brain injury occurs without there having been a direct impact to the skull
- Hypoxia: a deficiency in the supply of oxygen to the brain
- Anoxia: complete absence of oxygen in the brain, resulting in immediate death
- Infections
- Tumors
- Stroke
