  • 1.  Looking for Education for Pediatric patients on TBI or SCI

    Posted 23 days ago

    I am trying to find recommended/approved resources to help pediatric patients and their siblings/friends understand what is happening to them after a traumatic brain injury or spinal cord injury. Are there any Trauma Centers out there that have something that they use?

    Thank you

    Hi, Heather,
    There are a number of resources available on this at the EIIC website and CDC. Here are a few:
    ENA used to have an infographic with TBI protocols for children but I cannot seem to locate it any longer. If I find a copy I will share it here.
