How do you know if your child has a serious brain injury?

Each year, hundreds of thousands of children who hit their heads undergo CT scans to rule out serious brain injury. How do you know if your child has a serious brain injury?


There are two main causes of  child acquired brain injury (ABI). First, is hypoxia: That is: deficiency in the amount of oxygen reaching body tissues. The second major cause of child ABI is traumatic brain injury (TBI).


Children with brain injuries may lack the communication skills to report headaches, sensory problems, confusion and similar symptoms. Instead, they may:

    1.     Refuse to eat
    2.     Appear listless and cranky
    3.     Experience altered sleep patterns and school performance
    4.     Lose interest in favorite toys or activities


Traumatic brain injuries are often times missed by medical professionals.  If you suspect your child has suffered an undiagnosed brain injury, you should raise this issue with their  doctors. Take this list with you and explain to the  doctor the signs and symptoms your child is   experiencing.
