Traumatic Brain Injury
Psychiatr Ann. 2010 November;40(11):526-528
By Thomas W. McAllister, MD
Over the past several years, there has been a dramatic awakening of interest in traumatic brain injury (TBI) and its effects. TBI not only affects millions of Americans each year, but it is also a worldwide public health concern. It is difficult to open a newspaper or watch a news program without some mention of TBI and its many sequelae, whether in the context of concern about the current conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, the long-term effects of repetitive brain injuries on National Football League players and other professional athletes, the effects of concussion on student athletes, or worries about potential links to late-life dementia.
