Resume

Relevance. Mild traumatic brain injury (TBI) accounts for up to 90% of all TBIs in children. Despite a favorable outcome in the acute period, a significant proportion of patients experience remote consequences that significantly reduce quality of life and school performance. Objective. To study the structure and frequency of remote neurological consequences of mild TBI in children 6 months after the injury. Methods. A prospective study was conducted on 120 children aged 7 to 17 years (mean age 12.4±2.8 years) who suffered mild TBI (Glasgow Coma Scale 13–15 points). Assessment of neurological status, cognitive functions, and autonomic status was performed in the acute period, after 1 month, and after 6 months. The Post-Concussion Symptom Scale (PCS), Schulte tables, and Kraepelin tests were used. Results. Six months after the injury, clinical signs of post-concussion syndrome persisted in 28.3% of patients. In the structure of residual symptoms, cephalgic syndrome (82.4% of those with residual symptoms), asthenic syndrome (65.0%), and attention deficits (50.0%) predominated. Autonomic disorders and dizziness were less common (35. 3% and 29.4%, respectively). Conclusion. Remote consequences of mild TBI in children are characterized by polymorphism with a predominance of cephalgic and astheno-neurotic syndromes. The identification of persistent cognitive disorders requires the prescription of long-term rehabilitation.

Keywords: mild traumatic brain injury, children, post-concussion syndrome, cephalgia, cognitive impairment, remote consequences.
