Despite prevention efforts, pediatric head trauma remains the most common cause of serious injury and death in children. Seventy-five percent of children who are hospitalized secondary to trauma, sustain head trauma. Most pediatric head trauma is mild in severity, although central nervous system (CNS) injury is the most common cause of pediatric ...

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the leading causes of death and disability world wide. In the United States alone, nearly 1·7 million individuals are treated in the hospital setting for TBI of all severities, which accounts for over US$48 billion of health care cost annually.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major cause of traumatic death and disability In the US, a brain injury occurs every 7 s and results in death every 5 min ∼52,000 patients die from TBI each year TBI accounts for nearly one-third of all trauma-related deaths Common mechanisms include falls, motor vehicle accidents, and assaults In the US, most TBIs are

In western countries, injuries remain the leading cause of death in young adults (Jennett B. Epidemiology of head injury. J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry 1996; 60: 362-369). Worldwide, injuries are estimated to account for 15% of the burden of death and disability, and are projected to account for 20% in 2020 (Ad Hoc Committee on Health Research Relating

AbstractMild traumatic brain injury accounts for 1% to 2% of emergency department visits in the United States. Up to 15% of these patients will have an acute intracranial lesion identified on head computed tomography; less than 1% of mild traumatic brain injuries will require neurosurgical intervention.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) contributes significantly to the mortality and morbidity rates of traumatized patients. This article presents current concepts in the pathophysiology of TBI, including mechanisms of injury, biomolecular mediators of injury, and the occurrence of secondary injury. Emergency management, monitoring, and imaging of TBI also are

Advances in trauma care have allowed persons with traumatic brain injury to survive at increasingly greater rates. However, they commonly go on to experience complex symptoms including changes in cognitive, emotional, and behavioral functioning that together limit functioning and quality of life.
