Research examining
adults with moderate to severe TBI who participated in rehabilitation
showed that they were twice as likely to die from an unintentional
injury that occurred following their TBI. This was in comparison to
individuals in rehabilitation of similar age, sex, and race but
without TBI. People who have had a moderate to severe TBI may
experience changes in cognition and balance, which may put them at
greater risk of subsequent unintentional injuries.
