Tennessee Car Accidents Account for 1/3rd of all brain injury deaths?
Nashville car accidents, as well as Nashville motorcycle accidents and Nashville truck accidents are in the news daily. There is a “silent” injury in many of these accidents, traumatic brain injury.
A recent study published by the Department of Health and Human Services provides insight into how huge the problem of traumatic brain injury is. More than 52,000 die each year from brain injury and almost a third are the result of a car accident, but often brain injuries are undiagnosed.
A traumatic brain injury can be caused by a bump or blow to the head that disrupts the normal function of the brain.
Traumatic brain injury from a Tennessee car accident, motorcycle accident, or Tennessee tractor trailer accident can affect thinking, sensation, emotion, or language and is a contributor to over 30% of all injury related deaths.
