Brain injury is caused due to falls, road accidents, tumors, and stroke. This brain injury results in a change to the brain's neuronal activity that affects the physical reliability, metabolic activity, or functional ability of nerve cells in the brain. Brain injury causes an alteration in the brain function, or other evidence of brain pathology, caused by an external force. There are two types of brain injury including traumatic and non-traumatic brain injury. Traumatic brain injury is caused by fall, assaults, motor vehicle accidents, sports/recreation injuries, abusive head trauma (shaken baby syndrome), gunshot wounds, workplace injuries, child abuse, domestic violence, military actions (blast injury). Whereas non-traumatic brain injury is caused by stroke (haemorrhage, blood clot), infectious disease, meningitis, encephalitis, seizure, electric shock, tumors, metabolic disorders, neurotoxic poisoning (carbon monoxide, lead exposure), lack of oxygen (drowning, choking, hypoxic/anoxic injury), and drug overdose.
