#Sponsored #AbbottPartner A few months ago, my father-in-law took a tumble and said he felt a “little off” afterwards. I remember my husband asking him a series of questions to figure out if he suffered a concussion or had a brain injury.
When we took my father-in-law to the hospital, the doctors asked him the same series of questions. I learned that these questions were the standard for diagnosing traumatic brain injuries. In some cases, these standard questions end up leaving people (like
me) with more questions than answers. Fortunately, Abbott has created a blood test to assess concussions objectively, helping to bring some clarity to the process.
I created this piece in partnership with AbbottGlobal to illustrate the impact invisible signs of traumatic brain injuries have on a person. Head to the link to learn more about Abbott’s innovative healthcare technology.
