Hardest Trivia Quiz On Traumatic Brain Injury!
Settings
Traumatic brain injury typically results from a brutal blow or bumps to the head which leads to injury with a broad range of symptoms and disabilities. A traumatic brain injury can result in torn tissues, bruising can result in long-term issue or death. This quiz has been created to test your knowledge as well as make you aware of the symptoms and diagnosis of the injury. So, let's try out the quiz. All the best!
- 1.Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)
- A.
Physical damage to some part of the brain due to a sudden force to the head.
- B.
Physical damage to some part of the skull due to sudden force of the head.
- 2.True or false about Recovery of function "In clinical literature (such as professional journals), “good recovery” means that the person is able to resume normal life, even though there may still be minor impairments."
- A.
True
- B.
False
- 3.True or false about Recovery of function In research literature, a person (or lab animal) may be considered “recovered” if it is able to achieve a set goal.
- A.
True
- B.
False
- 4.True or false about recovery of function Some definitions of recovery of function focus on compensation, meaning that the person has switched to a different means of accomplishing tasks than they did prior to the TBI.
- A.
True
- B.
False
- 5.
- A.
4
- B.
2
- C.

- 6.How does the CNS react when it is damaged? (Pick 2)
- A.
Actual cell death caused by the event
- B.
Spasms throughout the peripheral branches
- C.
Secondary shutdown of other neurons near the area of damage, or associated with the damaged area
- D.
Numbness and tingling
- 7.How do neurons respond to injury? (Pick 2)
- A.
When damage occurs in premature regions of the CNS, Those cells automatically repoduce and are replaced
- B.
When damage occurs in mature regions of the CNS, that are made up mostly of cell bodies, those cells die and can’t be replaced
- C.
If damage occurs primarily to axons, it is possible for processes to occur that can restore and regenerate connections (current focus of research: how to manipulate things in the brain to enhance this)
- D.
If damage occurs primarily to dendrites, it is possible for processes to occure that can restore and regenerate

NATURE of the damage

- A.
True
- B.
False

- A.
True
- B.
False
- 11.True or false GENDER, Some evidence points that there is no differences in the make up of male and female brains, therefore this cannot affect recovery
- A.
True
- B.
False

True
- B.
False

True
- B.
False
