Recommendations for the use of common outcome measures in pediatric traumatic brain injury research.

abstract：:Patients with head injury must overcome central as well as peripheral metabolic insults. In addition to specific tissue damage to the brain, a cellular biochemical cascade occurs that can negatively affect organ function, cause a systemic response to injury, and may cause secondary tissue injury. The metabolites invol...
