Every five minutes, one person’s life is permanently altered in the United States due to head trauma. As prehospital, emergency, and critical care sciences progress, along with newer medical and surgical therapies, the prognosis for those acutely injured continues to become more favorable. This lecture will review assessment techniques utilized with neurologically injured pediatric patients, along with disputing those “we’ve always done it this way” treatment methods.
