Recent progress in resuscitation, hemostasis, imaging, noninvasive management, critical care, rehabilitation, and emergency medical system organization has not yet had a significant impact on reducing the toll of this disease. New and developing insights into our classification and approach to TBI may soon pave the way for meaningful advances. Until then, the clinicians who care for these patients must keep themselves as informed as possible about the limitations and appropriate uses of existing therapies.
