Abstract
In 2005, 1,304 Washington residents died from traumatic brain injuries (age-adjusted rate: 21 per 100,000). Men 65 years and older are at the highest risk of traumatic brain injury death. Most traumatic brain injury deaths to those in this age group result from falls. For all age groups combined, motor vehicle crashes and suicide (most with firearms) are the leading causes of traumatic brain injury deaths.
