Memory loss video - Headway

Our Memory loss after brain injury animation was produced in response to the findings of our survey, and aims to raise awareness of this complex effect of brain injury. It tells the story of Tony, a father who sustained a brain injury in a car accident. After waking from a coma, he didn’t recognise his family and closest friends.

Although, very few patients come to ICU at Guy's and St Thomas's with a brain injury, it is well recognised that many patients suffer with short-term memory difficulties after critical illness. There are good general principles in this video that all patients may find helpful.
