Cognitive and adaptive behavioural outcome were studied in the identified survivors of a population based study of non-traumatic coma (NTC) in childhood. Children were assessed early (six weeks) and late (12 months) after NTC. At least 7% of those children in whom no suspicions of prior neurodevelopmental morbidity existed showed moderate or severe disability following NTC. Children over 2 years of age at insult showed some improvement between early and late assessments; however, children below 2 years showed no improvement. Differing age at insult effects were observed between aetiological groups. A relation between early age at first insult and poor outcome was particularly evident among children experiencing NTC caused by epilepsy.
在一项基于人群的儿童非创伤性昏迷(NTC)研究中,对已确定的幸存者的认知和适应性行为结果进行了研究。在NTC发生后早期(六周)和晚期(12个月)对儿童进行评估。在那些之前没有神经发育疾病嫌疑的儿童中,至少7%在NTC后出现中度或重度残疾。受伤时年龄超过2岁的儿童在早期和晚期评估之间有一些改善;然而,2岁以下的儿童没有改善。在病因学组之间观察到受伤时年龄的不同影响。首次受伤时年龄较小与不良结果之间的关系在因癫痫导致NTC的儿童中尤为明显。
