Traumatic Brain Injury Task Force Report Released

U.S. Army Medical Command: “The Army has aggressively sought to prevent, diagnose and treat traumatic brain injuries (TBI), but much remains to be done to understand and respond to these injuries commonly associated with the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. So concluded the Traumatic Brain Injury Task Force, a group of experts chartered by the Army Surgeon General to analyze and make recommendations to improve the clinical, administrative and research processes involved with providing medical care and services to Soldiers and other service members. The group was chaired by Brig. Gen. Donald Bradshaw, commander of the Army’s Southeast Regional Medical Command, and included representatives from all the military services and the Department of Veterans Affairs (DVA). They studied the issue from January to May last year, and their report now has been released.”
