According to the National Center for Injury Prevention and Control, 1.4 million Americans suffer a traumatic brain injury each year. Of those, 50,000 die and 1.1 million are treated and released. But a large number, 235,000 victims, are hospitalized and could suffer serious brain injuries.
Unfortunately, children are most at risk for suffering accidents that could lead to a serious or traumatic brain injury. More than 475,000 children suffer from serious brain injury accidents each year. That means they're more likely to need extensive medical care for a long period of time; medical care that can get quite expensive in Wisconsin.
While accidents are the greatest causes of brain injuries in Wisconsin, they can also be caused by:
Slip and fall accidents
Car accidents
Motorcycle accidents
Inherited genetic defects
Viral infections
Trauma or drug use of the mother
