Head injury is one of the most important and repeatedly asked topics in all competitive nursing exams, including OSSSC Nursing Officer Exam, AIIMS Staff Nurse, NHM CHO/CHO-Nursing, ESIC, DSSSB, and various state-level nursing recruitment tests. This video from Nurse Pro has been created to help you understand the fundamentals of head injury in a simple, exam-oriented, and systematic way. In this Part 1 of the Head Injury Lecture Series, we focus on the basic foundation: Definition, Classification, and Key Concepts, which you must know before moving to deeper clinical aspects.

In this detailed lecture, we cover:

✅ Definition of Head Injury (TBI): Trauma to the scalp, skull, or brain. ✅ Classification by Site: * Scalp Injuries * Skull Fractures: Linear, Depressed, and the high-yield Basilar Skull Fracture (Learn the signs: Raccoon Eyes, Battle's Sign, CSF Leak). * Brain Injuries: Concussion (Mild TBI), Contusion, and the severe Diffuse Axonal Injury (DAI). * Intracranial Hemorrhages: Master the critical differences between Epidural Hematoma (EDH) (the 'lucid interval' injury) and Subdural Hematoma (SDH) (venous bleed). We simplify the location, cause, and clinical relevance of each.

This lecture is designed in a student-friendly way, using simple English with occasional Odia terms for easier understanding. Whether you are preparing for an exam or revising important Medical-Surgical Nursing concepts, this video will help strengthen your knowledge and boost your exam confidence.
