Abstract:
Young adults are more likely to suffer blast injury and traumatic brain injury (TBI) than other age groups. This article reviews the literature on the vestibular consequences of blast exposure and TBI and concussion. In addition, the vestibular test findings obtained from 31 veterans with a history of blast exposure and/or mild TBI are presented. The authors discuss loss of horizontal semicircular canal function and postural instability related to head injury. Preliminary data suggest the novel theory that otolith organs are uniquely vulnerable to head injury and blast exposure.

Abstract:
Symptoms of dizziness and imbalance are common sequelae following concussion and blast exposures that result in mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI), and these symptoms often last six months or longer. Most studies examining the effect of vestibular dysfunction on postural stability have used symptom scales or tests of vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) that measure horizontal semicircular canal (hSCC) function only. Vestibular loss, however, can occur in one or both labyrinths, in one or both branches of the vestibular nerve, and in one or more vestibular sensory end-organs. A prospective case-contr

Abstract:
Explosions cause the majority of injuries in the current conflicts, accounting for 79% of combat related injuries (Ramasamy et al. 2008). Blast overpressure from explosions can cause barotrauma to the lungs and the brain. Blast-induced mild traumatic brain injury has been labeled the "signature wound" of current military conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan (Snell and Halter 2010). In addition to elevated number of blast-induced traumatic brain injuries due to increased military conflicts overseas and the usage of improvised explosive devices, the incidence of blast-induced polytrauma has risen

Abstract:
Approximately one-third of trauma patients are coagulopathic on arrival to the emergency department. Acute traumatic coagulopathy and systemic inflammatory responses are serious secondary consequences of severe trauma and are linked to increased morbidity and mortality. Early tissue hypoxia is a major component in the aetiology of both complications. New resuscitation strategies are aimed at improving tissue oxygenation in the pre-hospital phase, and may attenuate coagulopathy and inflammatory sequelae. This is of particular importance in military personnel who suffer complex injuries, often f

Abstract:
The purpose of this article is to review relevant literature on the effect of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) and blast injury on the vestibular system. Dizziness and imbalance are common sequelae associated with mTBI, and in some individuals, these symptoms may last for six months or longer. In war-related injuries, mTBI is often associated with blast exposure. The causes of dizziness or imbalance following mTBI and blast injuries have been linked to white matter abnormalities, diffuse axonal injury in the brain, and central and peripheral vestibular system damage. There is some evidence t

Abstract:
This lecture takes a dual-targeted approach in: 1) acquainting the audience with newer neuroimaging techniques applied to the consequences of vestibular dysregulation following noise or blast-induced mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI); and 2) considers treatment and rehabilitation modalities of vestibular and balance dysfunction in order to help veteran’s resume normal activities-of-daily-living. Relevant examples from each targeted lecture will be provided. Intended Audience: Professionals interested in the area of vestibular and balance assessment, neuroimaging, and rehabilitation.

Abstract:
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a serious public health concern. Although moderate and severe forms of TBI receive considerable attention, mild TBI accounts for the majority of all injuries. The first two aims of this work used a rodent model of mild blast to simulate primary injury (damage from the blast wave only). The first aim evaluated potential changes in interneurons containing the calcium-binding proteins calretinin or parvalbumin. In addition, morphological changes in astrocytes and microglia were assessed. Brains were analyzed 48 hours and one month following exposure to single or re
