The CP Screen, additional items from the full version of the VOMS, and ImPACT memory and processing speed were also […]
Persistent Post-concussion syndrome: pathophysiology, diagnosis, current and evolving treatment strategies
INTRODUCTION: Persistent post-concussion syndrome (PCS) following mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) represents a growing global health challenge that significantly impacts patients' quality of life.

CONCLUSION: This study reports a significant association between early plasma administration and a lower risk of 4-hour mortality among children with severe TBI that does not persist at or beyond 24 hours. While these data suggest that plasma resuscitation may extend the window for lifesaving intervention, additional prospective data are needed.
