Traumatic Brain Injury and Intoxication
This just in from researchers in British Columbia. This was a research project to compare the affects of day of injury intoxication on traumatic brain injury (TBI) with longer term ree injury alcohol abuse on TBI: Overall, the results suggest that pre-injury alcohol abuse, compared with day-of-injury alcohol intoxication, had the most influence on short-term neuropsychological outcome from uncomplicated mild TBI. However, the influence of pre-injury alcohol abuse was considered small at best.
