Brain Injury
Brain injury can be defined as an injury of the brain regardless of age at onset. A brain injury can result in a substantial handicap to the person who sustained the brain injury and can cause various forms of cognitive impairments such as attention, memory or motor disorder.
A brain injury can also include any injury that is vascular and where no external factor has directly created the injury. A brain injury is different from a traumatic brain injury as the later occurs when an outside force injures the brain in a traumatic fashion.
