Although the field of concussion research is rapidly growing, the majority of research has focused on injured adults, with children being an often-neglected population. Traumatic brain injury is a leading cause of death and disability in children, with over 1.5 million cases being treated in North America annually. Approximately 75% of these injuries are classified as a concussion. Further, children are disproportionately affected by sports-related injuries, with 65% of all pediatric concussions occurring during sport and recreation. Therefore, understanding the outcomes of pediatric sportrelated concussion is of great importance, particularly given the vulnerability of the developing brain. The purpose of this review is to provide an up-to-date understanding of the outcomes of pediatric sport-related concussion from a data-driven perspective, focusing heavily on experimental studies.
尽管脑震荡研究领域正在迅速发展,但大多数研究都集中在受伤的成年人身上,而儿童往往被忽视。外伤性脑损伤是儿童死亡和残疾的主要原因,在北美每年有超过 150 万例病例接受治疗。其中约 75%的损伤被归类为脑震荡。此外,儿童受与运动相关的伤害影响不成比例,所有儿科脑震荡中有 65%发生在运动和娱乐活动中。因此,了解与儿童运动相关的脑震荡的结果非常重要,特别是考虑到发育中大脑的脆弱性。本综述的目的是从数据驱动的角度提供对儿童运动相关脑震荡结果的最新理解,重点关注实验研究。
