Popis: Concussion is considered a subset of traumatic brain injury (TBI) resulting in a transient disturbance in brain function, due to a direct or indirect blow to the head. Head-trauma-related symptoms are quite common and varied. Eighty to ninety percent of individuals recover neurologic function within 10 days of injury.
