Stroke and traumatic brain injury (TBI) symptoms and signs vary. TBI includes light, noise sensitivity; stroke presents with facial drooping.
Higher functional independence scores correlate with a greater likelihood of returning home after inpatient traumatic brain injury care.
Traumatic brain injury is associated with increased all-cause mortality, an association primarily driven by dementia-related death.
