	Traumatic brain injury - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		TBI can result from a closed head injury or a penetrating head injury and is one of two subsets of acquired brain injury (ABI).
		Diffuse trauma to the brain is frequently associated with concussion (a shaking of the brain in response to sudden motion of the head), diffuse axonal injury, or coma.
		The overall goal of rehabilitation after a TBI is to improve and optimize the patient's ability to function at home and in society in the face of the residual effects of the injury, which may be complex and multifaceted.

		Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a nondegenerative, noncongenital insult to the brain from an external mechanical force, possibly leading to permanent or temporary impairments of cognitive, physical, and psychosocial functions with an associated diminished or altered state of consciousness.
		Severe TBI with associated death at the scene of the accident or during transport to a hospital also may not be accounted for completely in data collection for TBI epidemiological studies.
		TBI is the result of an external mechanical force applied to the cranium and intracranial contents, leading to temporary or permanent impairments, functional disability, or psychosocial maladjustment.

		The social burden of TBI is significant, and therefore family education and counselling, and support of patient and carers, is important.
		TBI rehabilitation is best managed by a specialised interdisciplinary team of health professionals (Box 3); although such specialised teams are available in all regions of Australia, some States have more comprehensive services than others.
		However, severe TBI is not curable, and medical and rehabilitation management may not ultimately be able to provide the improvement desired by the patient and his or her family.
