November 16 ~ Risk Factors of Traumatic Brain Injury and the Aging Brain
Presented by Janelle Eloi, PsyD
Within the general population and cultural zeitgeist, there are a lot of misconceptions in regards to traumatic brain injuries (also known as a TBI) and the impact it may or may not have on one’s cognition, physical body, and emotional state. A TBI, which is often caused by a forceful blow to the head, can range in severity and degree and at times can be associated with physical and cognitive sequelae. After sustaining a TBI, some individuals may barely show symptoms while others may experience ongoing physical and cognitive problems. Furthermore, there are risk factors such as age, gender, occupation etc. that may place an individual at greater risk for sustaining a TBI and subsequently impact their activities of daily living, earning potential, quality of life, and overall future. This lecture will review the criteria for a TBI, the biggest risk factors for a TBI, the most common causes and symptoms of a TBI, the aging brain, and the impact a TBI may have on the aging brain.
