Brain Response to Trauma

You will discover the vital aspects of the brain's response to trauma, including the fight or flight mechanism and arthrogenic inhibition, to help you optimize patient care by tailoring treatments to the neurological aspects of recovery.

In the complex world of patient care, understanding how the brain responds to trauma is vital and essential for providing effective care. It's about making sense of why patients might remain stuck in dysfunction after an injury, and how we can guide them toward recovery.

This video is a key to unlocking enhanced patient outcomes and optimizing your clinic's approach. You will learn about:

  • Neurological Aspect: Explore the brain's response to trauma and how it influences patient recovery.

  • Fight or Flight Mechanism: Understand the immediate, instinctive reaction that can lead to persistent dysfunction.

  • Arthrogenic Inhibition: Learn about a mechanism that might keep patients in a state of dysfunction after trauma.

  • Trauma Beyond the Physical: Realize that trauma isn't just physical; it can be emotional or chemical, affecting patients' neurological responses.

By grasping the brain's response to trauma, you'll be better equipped to tailor your care approach, facilitating more effective and targeted treatments; and explain these concepts to patients in a way that makes sense to them, fostering a deeper understanding of their injuries.
