Sensory hypersensitivity / Sensory overload in 17 languages
We would like to explain something about sensory hypersensitivity /sensory overload after braininjury / Acquired Brain Injury in as many languages as possible.

The results of our scientific research are published. A translation will follow soon.
DEFINITION
Based on the research the definition of ‘Overstimulation due to Brain Injury’ has been further refined. This has resulted in the following definition:
Sensory Overstimulation due to brain injury is a condition characterised by an exhausting situation of neurological origin, which arises when more cognitive, emotional and sensory (including proprioceptive and vestibular) information (in the form of stimuli) is received than the brain can process.
This can result in:
- general neurovegetative imbalance* (autonomic nervous system) involving a fight, flight or freeze response and/or
- a short-term or long-term aggravation / exacerbation of neurological and cognitive brain injury symptoms and/or
- a short-term or long-term manifestation of neurological and cognitive brain injury symptoms.
There may be single complaints or combinations of neurovegetative, neurological, cognitive or emotional brain injury complaints
The severity of the complaints can fluctuate depending on the number of stimuli and whether or not stacked stimuli and varying daily energy. The severity of the complaints can differ individually and can be influenced by the location and severity of the brain injury, general physical and mental condition, personality characteristics, developmental or anxiety disorders and in particular also additional disorders of the senses, which may or may not develop acutely or develop slowly and for example medication use.
.
* definition of neuro-vegetative complaints = symptoms of the disease that can arise when the nervous system that independently (unwillingly) takes care of the control of various organs is disrupted.
In 2019, we received the Gold medal of honor for particularly good work for people with brain injuries.
