Maryland Traumatic Brain Injury Attorneys

Waldorf Traumatic Brain Injuries

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) in Maryland can occur without warning; however, this type of catastrophic injury occurs more frequently than many people realize. Car crashes, truck collisions, slip and fall accidents, work related accidents and other types of trauma can happen in the blink of an eye. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), about 1.7 million individuals will suffer a traumatic brain injury this year. What's worse is when a brain injury accident could have been prevented had a negligent party taken proper precautions. The CDC also notes that falls account for 35.2% of traumatic brain injuries, followed by motor vehicle accidents at 17.3%, struck by/against incidents at 16.5%, and assaults at 10%. (21% of traumatic brain injury causes are considered to be "unknown/other" by the CDC.)

Head injuries and traumatic brain injuries are some of the most serious injuries that anyone can sustain. The brain is the central organ in the body that is responsible for memory, proper bodily function, thought processing and motor skills. Depending on which part of the brain is damaged, one or multiple functions that once seemed second nature to a person before the accident can become challenging or nearly impossible. Because of a traumatic brain injury in Maryland, a once vibrant person who excelled at playing sports, for example, could have a challenging time even tying his or her shoes.

There are multiple factors that go into determining how well an individual with a traumatic brain injury will recover. Age, overall health, circumstances of the accident, and extent of brain damage that has been sustained all contribute to the recovery process. A younger person may recover partial or full brain function with the help of rehabilitation while an older person may not recover as quickly. In cases of traumatic brain injury, there is always a chance that the damage could prove fatal.
