Traumatic brain injury : a roadmap for accelerating progress /

Traumatic brain injury : a roadmap for accelerating progress / Donald Berwick, Katherine Bowman, and Chanel Matney, editors ; Committee on Accelerating Progress in Traumatic Brain Injury Research and Care, Board on Health Sciences Policy, Board on Health Care Services, Health and Medicine Division, the National Academies of Science, Engineering, Medicine.

Every community is affected by traumatic brain injury (TBI). Causes as diverse as falls, sports injuries, vehicle collisions, domestic violence, and military incidents can result in injuries across a spectrum of severity and age groups. Just as the many causes of TBI and the people who experience it...
