What is the Life Expectancy of Someone with TBI?
Despite initial hospitalization and inpatient rehabilitation services, about 50% of people with TBI (traumatic brain injury) will experience further decline in their daily lives or die within 5 years of their injury.
Even after surviving a moderate or severe TBI and receiving inpatient rehabilitation services, a person’s life expectancy is 9 years shorter.

TBI increases the risk of dying from several causes. Compared to people without TBI, people with TBI are more likely to die from:
-
Seizures
-
Drug poisoning
-
Infections
-
Pneumonia
Traumatic brain injuries can significantly affect a person’s daily life, too. The changes that are common after brain injury may affect a person’s ability to function in their everyday life.
According to the Centers for Disease Control, among those still alive 5 years after injury:
-
57% are moderately or severely disabled
-
55% do not have a job (but were employed at the time of their injury)
-
50% return to a hospital at least once
-
33% rely on others for help with everyday activities
-
29% are not satisfied with life
-
29% use illicit drugs or misuse alcohol
-
12% reside in nursing homes or other institutions

“What should I do if I experience health problems?”
First, seek medical treatment if you are developing health symptoms. Second, consider getting a baseline of your entire health, like blood tests and organ function, in case anything changes. And there are other steps you can take to improve your chances of securing compensation, like preserving evidence. Take photographs or videos of anything involved that you think led to your injury.
It is also important to be careful about what you sign or what you say to companies involved in your injury. They are trying to limit their liability and may try to get you to sign documents or make statements that hurt your case. To ensure your rights are protected in your state consult with an experienced attorney first.
