E235 - Re-release: Traumatic Brain Injury in Victims of Intimate Partner Violence

This Domestic Violence Awareness Month, we're revisiting an important topic: the often overlooked risk of traumatic brain injury (TBI) among victims of intimate partner violence. Our goal is to shed light on this highly vulnerable group that frequently goes unnoticed in discussions about TBI. By reexamining a previous episode released in March 2020, we aim to raise awareness about the significant dangers faced by those experiencing domestic abuse, particularly the risk of brain injuries resulting from physical violence in intimate relationships.
