At BrainSafe Advisors, it’s crucial to recognize the distinct origins of brain injuries, categorized into traumatic brain injury (TBI) and non-traumatic brain injury (ABI). TBI typically arises from external physical force or head trauma, often linked to incidents like car accidents, falls, sports injuries, or assaults. On the other hand, ABI, which results from internal factors, includes causes such as stroke, oxygen deprivation (hypoxia), brain tumors, infections, substance abuse, seizures, and metabolic disorders. Regardless of the cause, both types of brain injury demand immediate and specialized medical attention due to their potentially severe consequences.
