TBI Severity Rating
GCS: Mild 13-15, Moderate 9-12, Severity 3-8
LOC: 0-30 mins, 30 mins-24 hours, 24+ hours
PTA: 0-24 hours, 1-7 days, 7+ days
Children with ABI
TBI is the leading cause of death
Falls are the primary cause
0-4 year olds
at risk for TBI due to abusive head trauma (AHT) caused by shaken baby syndrome (SBS)
15-19 year olds
higher incidence of being struck by or against something THEN falls THEN MVA
outcome of children with ABI depend on
age of injury
nature of injury
severity of injury
supports
abusive head trauma diagnostic indicators
subdural hemorrhage or hematoma
cerebral edema- can lead to seziures and anoxia/hypoxia
retinal hemorrhage- present in 85% of AHT cases
%’s of severity of BI in children
80% mild
10% mod
10% severe
98% not referred to SPED- 2% are
% of severity for military populations
84% are mild and 16% mod-severe
blast injury
an injury based on impact
4 types of blast injury
Primary: direct impact
Secondary: Debris
Tertiary: body impact from hitting the floor or wall
Quarternary: inhalation of toxins
fundamental requirements working with families
excellent listening/ interviewer up to date knowledge on BI sharpen observation skills flexibility structure therapy
