Thornton Carmody chapter from Carlstedt Handbook
Abstract
This chapter has two goals: to provide the reader with a general awareness of traumatic brain injury (TBI), mild in particular, and the multiple complex issues involved in this area, and to offer a detailed understanding of the role of quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG) in the assessment and treatment of the cognitive defi cits of the TBI patient. Sections I-IV address the fi rst goal. Section I discusses defi nitions, sports, vulnerable groups, the concept of spontaneous cure, and roles of loss of consciousness and post-traumatic amnesia criteria. Section II addresses the biomechanics of a TBI. Section III discusses the physical damage to the brain caused by the TBI as measured by modern medical imaging. Section IV reviews the neuropsychological and emotional results of a TBI that may be clinically manifested in a patient.
