Bridging the gap: enhancing TBI care in Pakistan’s primary and secondary healthcare settings

Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) in Pakistan is predominantly caused by road traffic accidents, falls, and violence, resulting in approximately 300,000 new cases annually. Significant gaps exist in awareness, resources, and accessibility for effective TBI management, especially in primary care settings. To improve care, strategies include training healthcare providers, nationwide awareness campaigns, strengthening healthcare infrastructure, and establishing referral systems. Collaboration between government, NGOs, and international partners is crucial for enhancing TBI management.
