TBI is generally the result of a sudden,
violent blow or jolt to the head. The brain is

and bleeding.
TBI severity varies enormously depending

TBI is a leading cause of death and disability
around the globe and presents a major
worldwide social, economic, and health
problem. It is the number one cause of
coma. It plays the leading role in disability
due to trauma, and is the leading cause of
brain damage in children and young adults .

with an anticipated or predictable end and a
duration of less than 6 months.
Fractures occur when the bone is subjected to
stress greater that it can absorb. When
the bone is broken, adjacent structures are
also affected, resulting in soft tissue edema,
hemorrhage into the muscles and joints, joints
dislocations, ruptured ten-dons, severed
nerves, and damaged blood vessels. Body
organs may be injured by the force that caused
the fracture fragments. After a fracture, the
