Document Summary
Lecture taught by ta eliyas jeffrey (his slides will be posted up later we are accountable for knowing only the ta lecture slide for this exam as well as corresponding textbook material)* Tbi: head trauma, vascular disorders, degenerative disorders, multiple sclerosis, normal pressure hydrocephalus, toxicity, infectious process). This section only focused on traumatic brain injury, ta suggest you read the introduction and conclusion in the textbook really well if you have time, provides a general idea of what each disorder is. You brain should have a perfect midline, if not this can be due to blood in the brain that shifts the midline and can cause "cranial hemorrhage"" increases likelihood that someone could die. As with the example of phineas gage whose behaviour and personality was vastly changed after his frontal lobe injury. His tbi did not shorten his life span (from what we know). Tbi: traumatic induced physiological disruption of brain function.
