PSY345H5 Study Guide - Final Guide: Internal Bleeding, Brain Injury, Speech-Language Pathology
Document Summary
Aquatic brain injury= anyone that was normal and then they got the brain injury. Traumatic brain injury= trauma to the brain that is a result of some sort of an external force that physically damages the brain. So the injury can be really severe and we can"t underestimate it only because there are no physicals signs of it. Stretching of the brain tissue---tearing of the tissues eg. internal bleeding of the brain---increase in pressure of the brain= needs immediate brain surgery. Birth process brain injury= instead of the head coming out first the legs come out first therefore, choking the head and there is not enough oxygen going to the brain of the child. Degenerative brain injuries= parkinson"s, alziemars, huntington"s= all disintegrate parts of the brain. Auto=wear seatbelts- adjust car seat (frontal brain injury. Bike=even they were to go slowly without any helmet they are still at) risk of get tbi=helmet. Work place= constructions, factory wear helmets + safety precautions.
