AB  - Traumatic  brain  injury  (TBI)  is  the  impairment  in  brain  function  after  direct  or  indirect  forces  to  the  brain.  The  force  of  an  object  striking  the  head  or  a  penetrating  injury  causes  direct  injury.  Indirect  injuries  occur  from  acceleration/deceleration  forces  that  result  in  the  movement  of  the  brain  within  the  skull.
