Full textLes Traumatismes Crâniens Légers (TCL) et les commotions cérébrales sont des blessures complexes auxquelles les enfants et les adolescents sont particulièrement à risque. Il n'existe pas actuellement d'outil objectif pour le diagnostic et le monitorage de ces blessures, qui sont difficiles à gérer en raison de la grande hétérogénéité clinique qui les caractérise. Un nombre grandissant d'études indique que les TCL peuvent engendrer une dysfonction au niveau des mouvements oculaires chez les adultes, et que ces troubles visuels pourraient servir de marqueurs efficaces pour la détection. La question n'a jamais été posée chez les enfants. Ce projet tente d'apporter une réponse préliminaire, d'abord en évaluant l'intégrité des Mouvements de Poursuite Visuelle (MPV) et de fixation chez des enfants et adolescents atteints d'un TCL, puis en comparant leur performance à celle de sujets contrôles n'ayant pas subi de blessure à la tête. Les résultats obtenus sont mixtes. Aucune dysfonction au niveau des mouvements de fixation n'a été décelée; toutes les mesures utilisées pour évaluer les capacités de fixation étaient comparables par groupe. En revanche, des troubles sélectifs ont été détectés au niveau des MPV. Les patients atteints de TCL éprouvaient en moyenne plus de difficulté à synchroniser le mouvement de leurs yeux avec le mouvement d'une cible. La précision et la vélocité du mouvement ne semblaient pas toutefois affectées. Les résultats ne permettent pas de trancher sur la nature exacte du trouble observé, ce dernier pouvant être causé à la fois par une dysfonction au niveau des circuits visuo-moteurs propre, et par une dysfonction au niveau de structures de plus haut niveau modulant les MPV. Ces résultats préliminaires indiquent que l'évaluation des MPV pourrait contribuer au diagnostic et au monitorage de TCL pédiatriques, et renforcent le besoin d'investigations additionnelles dans ce domaine.

Full text“Theory of mind” (ToM) refers to the ability to understand and make inferences about other people’s intentions, feelings and beliefs. The fact that previous research shows an impairment in social competence following traumatic brain injury (TBI) alludes to a potential relationship between TBI and ToM. Although the relationship between paediatric TBI (pTBI) and ToM ability is relatively unexplored, especially within a South African context, previous research on TBI and ToM suggests social impairment following TBI. The current research project was aimed to investigate exactly that. The study reported here investigated this relationship, and specifically focused on the effects of pTBI on ToM ability in 9-15 year old children.

Full textBackground and aims. Executive function (EF), defined as a set of interrelated skills and behavioural competencies required for independent, purposeful, goal-directed activity, are particularly susceptible to impairment following traumatic brain injury (TBI). Despite this knowledge, data concerning the rehabilitation of executive dysfunction in pediatric populations is lacking to date. A Goal Management Training (GMT) intervention, based on Duncan et al.’s (1996) theory of goal neglect, has been successfully implemented for the remediation of EF in adults. The current study adapted the GMT to a healthy South African sample and evaluated the efficacy in a pediatric TBI sample. Method. The study comprised of 3 parts. Part 1 involved the translation and adaptation of the pediatric GMT (pGMT) intervention so that it was suitable for use with South African children. This included the implementation of various health professionals’ evaluations of these adaptations. Part 2 involved evaluating the pGMT by implementing the programme with 3 healthy control participants. Lastly, Part 3 involved evaluating the efficacy of the revised pGMT with 3 children who had sustained a moderate to severe TBIs. For Parts 2 and 3 I employed a multiple case study approach. Data for parts 2 and 3 were analyzed using the Reliable Change Index (RCI; Jacobson & Truax, 1991) . The RCI distinguished between three levels of change, each at confidence levels of 68.2%, 95% and 99%. Outcomes were based on neuropsychological test outcomes, changes in everyday behaviour, self-report measures, and reports from parents and teachers. Results. Regarding the cognitive measures for the TBI group, all three participants did not show improvement on the same domains. Positive changes from pre- to post-intervention on a number of attention and executive function measures at confidence intervals of 68.26% to 99% were evident. Regarding the behavioural measures parents/guardians and/or teachers reported significant positive changes for all of the participants on at least one index at confidence intervals of 68.26% to 99%. In terms of real world generalization, only one participant’s teacher and parents commented on her improvements academically, behaviourally, and socially. No significant real world behavioural changes were reported for the other two participants. Results indicated that the adapted pGMT was successfully applied to the South African context for both healthy and TBI samples, although levels of success, in terms of post-intervention outcomes, varied with each TBI individual. Conclusions. These results suggest that the pGMT intervention could be an efficacious cognitive rehabilitation tool for the remediation of everyday behaviours associated 9 with executive dysfunction in South Africa. However, the variability in the results do not provide conclusive evidence at this stage. Individual, injury-related and familial factors need to be considered and may affect outcome. In addition, limitations such as the small sample size and uncontrolled confounding effects (e.g., practice or maturation effects) could also contribute to seemingly positive effects. Greater evidence from future, larger and more controlled studies, is required

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a highly complex clinical condition in the most complex organ of the body. The foundation of care of the patient with severe TBI is the prevention of secondary insults to the brain. This relies on conventional monitoring tools to identify patients at risk, but often these may fail to detect important secondary insults. Moreover, the therapies that are used commonly in the critical care environment all have potential adverse effects, many of which may not be evident. TBI treatment in children is further complicated by changing thresholds with age, and the much smaller evidence base compared to their adult counterparts.

Full textSecondary insults in severe traumatic brain injury (TBI) may worsen outcome; however, these are poorly characterized in children. For example, despite the known association between intracranial pressure (ICP) and poor outcome, there are few large paediatric series on the subject, definitions vary, functional outcome is often not assessed, and the best measures to assess ICP for statistical analysis are unknown. We aimed to document the frequency of secondary insults, and the association of various ICP measures, with outcome in a large cohort of paediatric patients with severe TBI. A retrospective analysis of 5-year prospectively collected data was examined for the frequency of hypoxia, hypotension, raised ICP, and low cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP). ICP parameters included initial ICP, mean ICP in the first 24 hours, mean ICP overall, peak ICP, mean ICP over 20 mmHg, and episodes of ICP over 20 mmHg. Hypotension was defined by age †and height †adjusted mean arterial pressure ranges, and hypoxia was defined as arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) less than 8kPa or pulse oximetry less than 90%. We examined for univariate and multivariate associations with mortality and the Extended Paediatric Glasgow Outcome Score.

Full textThe aim of this dissertation was to investigate severe pediatric traumatic brain injury (pTBI) in South Africa. To that end, I conducted three studies, each examining a different aspect of severe pTBI. Study 1 presents a demographic profile of trends in severe pTBI admissions to the Red Cross War Memorial Children's Hospital (RXH) from June 2006 to April 2011. Study 2 examines the associations between secondary injury, as manifest by low brain oxygenation (PbtO2), and neuropsychological outcomes in severe pTBI. Study 3 evaluates the efficacy of an attention-training intervention for severe pTBI, and discusses the implementation of that intervention in the context of a low- and middle-income country. All three studies were cross-sectional and quantitative.

Full textIntroducción: Se evaluará el uso de antibióticos profilácticos para prevenir el desarrollo de neumonía asociada a ventilador (NAV) en la población pediátrica admitida con diagnóstico de traumatismo encéfalo craneano (TEC) moderado a grave. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio cohorte retrospectivo de todos los pacientes pediátricos, entre 1 y 18 años, que fueron admitidos con diagnóstico TEC moderado o grave y estuvieron con ventilación mecánica más de 48 horas en el Hospital de Emergencias Pediátricas, Lima-Perú. Resultados: Ciento cuarenta y cinco pacientes con TEC y que recibieron ventilación mecánica fueron evaluados. Se encontró una densidad de incidencia de neumonía asociada a ventilador (NAV) de 44.60/1000 días de ventilador. No se encontró relación entre la profilaxis antibiótica y el desarrollo de NAV. Asimismo, se obtuvo que la realización de higiene oral con clorhexidina disminuye en 45% el riesgo de desarrollar NAV (IC 0.33-0.95). Además, la presencia de secreciones purulentas (IC 2.23-11.45), sólidas (IC 1.67-11.34) o densas (IC 2.91-16.75) tiene 3, 5 y 6 veces más riesgo de neumonía asociada a ventilador, respectivamente. Conclusiones: La profilaxis antibiótica no mostró tener un efecto positivo en la prevención de neumonía asociada a ventilador; sin embargo, otras medidas como la higiene oral con clorhexidina sí estuvieron asociadas disminuyendo el riesgo de desarrollar NAV. La proporción de pacientes que recibieron profilaxis antibiótica fue 81 (55.6%) y la densidad de incidencia de NAV encontrada en el estudio se encuentra dentro de los estándares encontrados en la literatura disponible. Además, el tipo de secreción se identificó como un factor predictor de mayor riesgo de neumonía asociada a ventilador. Se requieren aún más estudios enfocados en esta población.
