A: The brain stem controls many physiologic systems. An injury to the brain stem is likely to create problems in mobility, motor control and central functions. This could result in difficulty standing, walking, getting in and out of a bed or chair, lifting, throwing, catching, feeding oneself, writing, and performing other normal daily activities. People with brain stem injuries tend to require a prolonged period of medical supervision and may have long-term physical deficits related to their injuries.
