    Craniocerebral Trauma

    Jgreber Peter

    Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) happens when an outside mechanical power brings about tissue and cell harm inside the cerebrum that may prompt lasting or brief hindrance of intellectual, physical, orpsychosocial capacities and a lessened or changed condition of awareness. There are two kinds of TBI: shut and entering. Shut TBI is a physical issue to the cerebrum brought about by development of the mind inside the skull. Causes may incorporate falls, an engine vehicle crash, or being hit by or with an item. Infiltrating TBI is a physical issue to the cerebrum brought about by an unfamiliar item entering the skull. Causes may incorporate gun wounds or being hit with a sharp item. The least complex type of TBI is blackout, which might be characterized as transient disability of neurologic capacity with or without loss of awareness happening at the hour of injury. About 75% of TBIs that happen every year are blackouts or different types of gentle TBI.

      Exploring and Healing Invisible Wounds: Perceptions of Trauma-Specific Treatment from Incarcerated Men and Women

      Julia Gajewski-Nemes, Nena Messina

      Despite the alarming rates at which justice-involved individuals experience trauma, there is great hesitancy to discuss and address trauma in prison-based programs for fear of re-traumatization and decompensation. Recently, a series of studies assessed the efficacy of brief trauma-specific interventions for incarcerated men and women (Exploring Trauma and Healing Trauma, respectively). The quantitative results of these pilot studies showed positive and consistent improvement in anger, aggression, and psychological well-being across multiple facilities, varying levels of custody, and models of delivery. The current study adds to this literature by examining the corresponding qualitative data collected through participant focus groups and written feedback. Post-program feedback surveys for over 1,000 women and over 800 men and focus group summaries from 21 women and 23 men were compiled and analyzed using deductive thematic analysis. Participants’ feedback of the brief, trauma-specific interventions was overwhelmingly positive. They commented on the program’s structure, content, and overarching benefits. Underlying themes included appreciation for the facilitators, the safety of small groups, the ability to discuss trauma without judgment, skills to address and control anger, gaining self-respect and empathy, and healing relationships childhood wounds. Final comments included requests for more availability and more intensive trauma-based programs. The qualitative findings centralize the participants’ subjective experiences of the program, providing a more in-depth exploration into the pilot studies outcome results. The findings further suggest that justice-involved men and women with histories of trauma and abuse can heal in a custody setting if the program content addresses such histories with safety and appropriate program materials.

        Anne Lorusso

        Dental trauma is an injury related to the mouth also including teeth, lips, tongue, gums, jawbones and the most common dental trauma is a broken or lost tooth. Traumatic dental injuries mainly occur due to falls, sports injuries, and accidents, the majority of these injuries are minor. It is quite common to remove your tooth or unpick completely out, but the treatment for these kinds of injuries depends on the area, severity, and type of each injury. Sometimes, the adjoining teeth of an individual suffer an unnoticed and additional injury that can only be recognized by an intensive dental test. Dental experts who are treating traumatic dental injury, with their advanced methods and skills often can save harmed teeth. Dislodged primary teeth in children with a very rare case can be repositioned and the chipped primary teeth in children can be restored, but these knocked teeth will be replaced because it might further cause permanent damage to the underlying longlasting tooth which is growing inside the bone. Permanent teeth of a child which are not fully developed at the time of injury must need some special care and root canal treatment, but in some cases, not all of them should need root canal treatment. If any individual having a fractured tooth, either it can be repaired by reattaching the broken piece or by placing it with tooth-colored filling at that particular place.

          DOI: 10.37421/2167-1222.2023.12.571

          Neurological conditions often result in sensory deficits, impacting patients' functional abilities and overall quality of life. SRFT, an innovative therapeutic approach, aims to compensate for sensory impairments by using technology to replace or augment lost sensory input. By providing real-time feedback and stimulation, SRFT can facilitate neural plasticity and promote motor learning in neurological patients. This comprehensive review synthesizes existing literature on the effectiveness of SRFT in improving neurological patient outcomes, such as motor function, balance, and activities of daily living. The analysis highlights the positive impact of SRFT on neural reorganization and functional recovery, particularly in stroke, traumatic brain injury, and peripheral neuropathy patients. Furthermore, this abstract discusses the potential challenges and future directions for SRFT implementation, emphasizing the need for personalized and evidence-based approaches in clinical practice. Overall, the findings underscore the significance of SRFT as a promising adjunctive therapy for enhancing neurological patient outcomes and advancing neurorehabilitation strategies.

            Kathleen Fedric

            According to the American Psychological Association (APA), trauma is “an emotional response to a terrible event like an accident, rape, or natural disaster”. However, a person may experience traumaas a response to any event they find physically or emotionally threatening or harmful. A traumatized person can feel a range of emotions both immediately after the event and in the long term. They may feel overwhelmed, helpless, shocked, or have difficulty processing their experiences. Trauma can also cause physical symptoms. Trauma can have long-term effects on the person’s well-being. If symptoms persist and do not decrease in severity, it can indicate that
            the trauma has developed into a mental health disorder called posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
