Abstract

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) presents in various forms ranging from mild alterations of consciousness to an unrelenting comatose state and death. The most severe type of TBI affects the entire brain with a diffuse sort of injury and swelling. Treatment options are extensive and range from regular cognitive therapy sessions to severe surgery such as bilateral decompressive craniectomies. Although guidelines for the optimal care of TBI have been established, they must be considered in the context of the scenario and cannot be used in every particular circumstance. We have reviewed the present state of TBI treatment in clinical practice and basic research in this review article. The provides a concise summary of the many subtypes of traumatic injuries, optimal medical therapy, noninvasive and invasive monitoring technologies, as well as surgical interventions that may be essential in specific circumstances.

Overview

The most common cause of traumatic brain damage is a forceful blow or jolt to the head or body. A traumatic brain injury can also be caused by an object that passes through brain tissue, such as a gunshot or shattered piece of skull [1]. Mild traumatic brain injury may have a temporary effect on your brain cells. Severe traumatic brain injury can result in bruises, torn tissues, bleeding, and other physical brain damage. These injuries can have long-term consequences or even result in death.
