Assessment of post-traumatic amnesia in young children.

M B Ruijs1, A Keyser, F J Gabreëls.   

Abstract

To assess the duration of post-traumatic amnesia (PTA) in children, a new procedure is described, derived from a method described previously for adults. The procedure was tested on 70 healthy children between 3.5 and 10 years of age, then applied in a longitudinal prospective study of 54 children with brain damage resulting from closed head-injury. The procedure consistently measured PTA in children of various ages. The duration of PTA was found to be as good a prognostic indicator for the occurrence of long-term residual sequelae as is duration of coma.
