Head injuries in children: a prospective five year follow-up

Head injuries in children: a prospective five year follow-up

H Klonoff et al. J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry. 1977 Dec.

Abstract

A five year follow-up study was conducted with two groups of head-injuried children. 131 younger than 9 years old at time of injury and 100 older than 9 years. The four aspects studied were neuropsychological function, neurological status, EEG status, and school progress. There was an extended recovery process over time, as well as evidence of a differential rate of recovery for the four aspects measured.
