Though DAI is a histological diagnosis, clinically it may be defines as a state of unconsciousness lasting for minimum 6 hours or more after traumatic brain injury  except cases of swelling or ischemic brain lesions. DAI is the considered the most important factor in determining the morbidity and mortality in the traumatic brain injury. DIA causes behavioral, physical, and cognitive changes that effect on social and personal life of a patient also quality of life of patients and their families is affected. Ayurveda describes Head as a marma point. Head injury is termed as Shiromarma abhigata in Ayurveda classical books.
