It is very common for mild Traumatic Brain Injuries (mTBI) to be overlooked in emergency settings. Research shows that only about 35.3%⁺ of patients with documentation sufficient for a diagnosis were actually properly diagnosed in the ER. Furthermore, an estimated 56% of mTBI cases⁺ are missed in emergency departments entirely. If you are experiencing lingering "fogginess," headaches, or mood changes, a specialized neurological evaluation is essential.
