What is a Brain Injury?

An Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) is classified as damage to the brain occurring after birth through Traumatic or Non-Traumatic injuries. Contrary to common belief, ABI is not associated with neurodevelopmental disorders, congenital disorders or degenerative diseases, such as ADD/ADHD, Alzheimer’s Disease, MS, or Parkinson’s Disease.

  • Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is the result of damage to the brain caused by an event such as blunt force trauma to the head, a traumatic fall, sport related injuries, and motor vehicle accidents.
  • Non-Traumatic Brain Injury (nTBI) is the result of damage to the brain caused by an illness such as aneurysms, anoxia or hypoxia (oxygen deprivation or overdose) or stroke.
