Post-traumatic epilepsy (PTE) is a life-long complication of traumatic brain injury (TBI) [3]. PTE and post-traumatic seizures (PTS) have both been used to describe seizures occurring after head trauma that are believed to be causally related to the trauma itself [3].
The Saffir-Simpson Wind Scale is a categorical classification of hurricanes based on their wind speed, used by the U.S. government's National Hurricane Center. To qualify as a Category 5 hurricane on the Saffir-Simpson hurricane intensity scale, maximum sustained winds must exceed 155 mph (135 kt).
The original Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Damage-Potential Scale is a hurricane force scale using the numbers 1-5 to rate a hurricane's intensity. The scale was developed by engineer Herbert Saffir and pioneer hurricane expert Dr Robert Simpson in 1971. The scale is assigned to a hurricane based on its peak wind speed. The scale is used to give an estimate of the potential property damage and flooding expected along the coast from a hurricane landfall.
