Local and global challenges in pediatric traumatic brain injury outcome and rehabilitation assessment.
Child's Nervous System : ChNS : Official Journal of the International Society for Pediatric Neurosurgery 2017 October
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major public health problem associated with high morbidity and mortality rates in children in both high- and low- and middle-income countries. Predicting outcome after pediatric TBI is challenging given the wide range of injury and non-injury-related factors which may have an impact. Some of these factors are relevant globally (like heterogeneity in patient and injury-related factors and research methodology) and others are more specific to local contexts (like sociodemographic and cultural factors). The assessment of rehabilitation outcomes post-TBI are similarly challenging given the various methodological limitations, disparities in access to rehabilitation, and limited awareness of deficits, which are encountered globally, as well as the lack of services in the local settings. In this article, we discuss these global and local challenges to outcome and rehabilitation assessment following pediatric TBI.
