TBI & Concussion Management

At Victory Medical Group, we specialize in the comprehensive management of Traumatic Brain Injuries (TBI) and concussions, particularly those resulting from auto accidents. Our innovative, fully virtual services allow patients to receive expert neurological care and ongoing management of their brain injuries without needing to visit a clinic in person. This means that no matter where you are located, you have access to board-certified neurologists and customized treatment plans tailored to your needs.

TBI and concussion management is a critical aspect of recovering from head trauma. Our approach combines cutting-edge technology, personalized care, and continuous support to ensure that patients get the best possible outcomes after their injuries.

What is TBI & Concussion Management?

TBI and concussion management refer to the comprehensive care provided to patients who have experienced brain injuries due to head trauma. Concussions are classified as mild traumatic brain injuries, but even “mild” injuries can have serious, long-lasting effects if not properly treated. More severe TBIs can result in significant impairments to cognitive function, motor skills, and overall quality of life.

At Victory Medical Group, our TBI & concussion management services are designed to:

Diagnose the extent of the brain injury through advanced neurocognitive testing and virtual neurological assessments.
Treat the symptoms and underlying damage caused by head trauma.
Monitor progress through follow-up virtual consultations, adjusting the treatment plan as needed for optimal recovery.
Educate patients on managing symptoms and preventing further injuries.

Our goal is to provide patients with personalized, expert care to help them recover from their brain injuries as fully and quickly as possible.

How Does Our TBI & Concussion Management Work?

The process of a virtual neurology consultation is straightforward:

01.

Initial Virtual Consultation

After an auto accident or other traumatic event, if you experience symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, memory problems, or cognitive difficulties, it’s important to seek immediate medical attention. At Victory Medical Group, our team will schedule a same-day virtual consultation with one of our board-certified neurologists. This consultation allows us to assess your symptoms and medical history and perform a thorough virtual neurological exam.

02.

Comprehensive Diagnosis

Using the latest telemedicine tools and techniques, we evaluate your condition and diagnose whether you have experienced a concussion or traumatic brain injury. Our diagnosis includes:

Neurocognitive Testing: Evaluating memory, attention, and cognitive function to understand the impact of the injury.

Neurological Assessment: A virtual examination of your motor skills, coordination, reflexes, and other neurological functions.

Symptom Review: Understanding your symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, confusion, or mood changes, which are common after a TBI or concussion.

03.

Personalized Treatment Plan

Based on the diagnosis, we develop a customized treatment plan tailored to your specific symptoms and the severity of your brain injury. This plan may include:

Medication Management: Prescribing medication to manage symptoms such as pain, headaches, and dizziness.

Cognitive Rehabilitation Exercises: Exercises designed to help restore cognitive function, including memory and concentration.

Physical Therapy Recommendations: If necessary, we refer patients to virtual or in-person physical therapy to address motor skills or balance issues caused by the injury.

Education on Symptom Management: Teaching patients how to manage symptoms like light sensitivity, fatigue, and headaches, and prevent aggravating the injury.

04.

Follow-Up Care and Monitoring

Recovery from a TBI or concussion is an ongoing process that requires continuous monitoring. Our team provides regular follow-up virtual consultations to track your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your treatment plan. We monitor for signs of post-concussion syndrome or any long-term complications that may arise, ensuring you receive the most up-to-date care.

05.

Recovery Timeline

Every brain injury is different, and recovery timelines vary. While some patients may recover quickly from a concussion, others with more severe TBIs may require long-term care. We work closely with you throughout your recovery to make sure you’re receiving the right care at the right time.

Symptoms Treated in TBI & Concussion Management

At Victory Medical Group, we provide treatment for a wide range of symptoms related to TBI and concussions. Common symptoms we address include:

Headaches or Migraines: Persistent or severe headaches are a common symptom of TBIs and concussions. Our team provides treatments to alleviate this pain.

Dizziness and Balance Issues: Head injuries can disrupt your equilibrium. We assess and treat these issues to help restore normal balance and coordination.

Cognitive Impairments: Difficulty concentrating, memory loss, and confusion are hallmark symptoms of TBIs and concussions. Our neurocognitive testing identifies these impairments, and we develop strategies to help you regain cognitive function.

Vision Problems: Blurred vision light sensitivity, or difficulty focusing are common after head injuries, and we provide guidance on managing these visual disturbances.

Emotional and Mood Changes: Patients with TBIs often experience irritability, depression, or anxiety. Our team addresses these issues as part of your overall recovery plan.

Sleep Disturbances: Insomnia or trouble staying asleep is common after a head injury. We help manage these symptoms to improve your overall recovery.

Who Should Seek TBI & Concussion Management?

If you’ve been in an auto accident or sustained any form of head injury, you should consider TBI & concussion management if you experience:

Persistent headaches or migraines

Dizziness or loss of balance

Memory problems or difficulty concentrating

Confusion or cognitive delays

Vision problems, such as blurred vision or light sensitivity

Mood swings or emotional instability

Difficulty sleeping or chronic fatigue Seeking early management of these symptoms is crucial to preventing long-term damage and ensuring a full recovery. Delayed treatment can result in post-concussion syndrome, where symptoms persist for months or even years after the initial injury.
