Question
cowgirl
Okay, my mind wanders and I been wonderin.
Say one incurred a concussion, knocked out and recovers enough to be released next day, recorded in medical records, is that considered a TBI? Treatment at 2 different hospitals, but later released after being 'watched' overnight.
Or is a TBI a severe impact that causes a chronic condition, needs followup care, stivitches bandaged, surgery etc?
To have the TBI recognized as such, does the vet need ongoing care? or just wait until something occurs that 'reconnects' the injury to a current condition?
The dumb question is the one not asked,
