Excerpt
In the past several decades, considerable progress has been made in understanding the neurobehavioral impact of pediatric mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). Research has indicated that the effects of mTBI are likely to be self-limiting for the majority of children and adolescents. At the same time, outcomes are apt to be less simplistic than was assumed historically. This chapter focuses on neurobehavioral outcomes after pediatric mTBI, highlighting some reasons why variability may be seen in individual clinical patients as well as in the research literature. Select clinical management issues are also discussed.
