Five Common Causes of Traumatic Brain Injuries

Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) can have life-altering consequences, affecting individuals physically, cognitively, and emotionally. Whether it’s a motor vehicle accident, a fall, a sports-related incident, an act of violence, or a workplace mishap, knowing the factors that contribute to TBIs can empower individuals to take necessary precautions and promote safety in their daily lives.

Motor Vehicle Accidents

Car accidents, motorcycle crashes, and collisions involving other vehicles can result in traumatic brain injuries when the head experiences a direct impact or violent shaking.

Falls

Falls are a leading cause of TBIs, especially among young children and older adults. Falls from heights, slipping and falling on slippery surfaces, or tripping and hitting the head on a hard surface can lead to brain injuries.

Assaults & Violence

Intentional acts of violence, including physical assaults, domestic abuse, and shaken baby syndrome, can result in severe traumatic brain injuries.

Sports & Recreational Activities

Contact sports like football, soccer, and boxing, as well as high-impact activities such as skiing, skateboarding, and cycling, can expose individuals to the risk of traumatic brain injuries from collisions, falls, or violent movements.

Workplace Accidents

In certain industries, such as construction, manufacturing, and transportation, workers may be at risk of traumatic brain injuries due to falls from heights, being struck by objects, or being involved in machinery accidents.
