Midwest Concussion Clinic According to a study through the DoD, 458,894 military members were diagnosed with a traumatic brain injury during combat or training between 2000-2022.* That’s an alarming number in itself, taking into account that most concussions go unreported, that number may be far below the true prevalence. Military personell don’t just sacrifice their acute health during their service, they also risk long term complications. #Concussion #ConcussionRehab #ConcussionEducation #ConcussionAwareness #ConcussionClinic #ConcussionRecovery #MWConcussion

🗣️Urgent, Call To Arms! We only have 2 weeks to have your voice heard to establish a pathway for war lung disease! For over two years, Burn Pits 360 has fought tirelessly to get the VA to recognize Constrictive Bronchiolitis (CB) and adopt a specific diagnostic code for this debilitating condition. This is a major victory for Post 9/11 Veterans exposed to toxic burn pits, but we need your help to ensure the VA’s proposed rule properly reflects the needs of Veterans. The VA has opened a 30-day comment period where Veterans, physicians, and advocates can submit feedback on the new CB evaluation criteria. While the rule proposes to add new criteria like maximum oxygen consumption (VO2 Max) and metabolic equivalents, we believe it’s critical to include confirmed biopsy results as a primary diagnostic criterion. We need non invasive technologies and pathways. Your voice matters! We encourage all Veterans, healthcare professionals, and supporters to submit comments to ensure the final rule fully supports those suffering from CB. This is your chance to influence the policies that will determine disability ratings and access to care for countless Veterans. Submit your comment at the link in our bio https://lnkd.in/gtr48AHk Together, we can ensure that Veterans with Constrictive Bronchiolitis receive the recognition, care, and benefits they deserve.
