Family stress when living with PTSD or blast injury
Blast injuries in the United States armed forces:
America's armed forces are sustaining attacks from explosions or blast by rocket-propelled grenades, improvised explosive devices, and land mines almost daily in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Over 90% of combat-related TBIs are closed brain injuries. For these reasons, individuals exposed to blasts should be screened for TBI immediately following the event to minimize medical complications. Delays in treatment can reduce the chance for optimal recovery or result in significant cognitive, physical and/or psychological impairment.
