Abstract

The development of the Unified Head Injury Theory (UHIT) has been under way at The Ohio State University for the last eight years. The new criteria have two major parts. The first deals with translational (rigid impact) head injuries which include skull fracture and brain contusion. The second part deals with rotational (induced brain motion) head injuries which include diffuse axonal injuries (DAI) and bridging vein tears.
