Sponsor's own description

the safety and validity of the PECARN with 100% sensitivity in both age groups in identifying patients with ciTBI and theoretically in reducing performed CT scans by 29%. Therefore, in patients classified in the low-risk category, it is a duty not to expose the child to ionizing radiation. the NICE criteria can minimize the number of CT scans conducted while maintaining a fair sensitivity for identifying patients with TBI and those requiring neurosurgical intervention the sensitivity of the intracranial damage NICE criteria was 93% for early presenters. This study is conducted to detect which guidelines can be followed to detect all intracranial lesions with minimizing the number of unnecessary CT scans. the aim of the study is to evaluate safety and efficacy (sensitivity and specificity) of PECARN and NICE guidelines for detection of traumatic brain injury as compared to current clinical practice in emergency setting and Detection of intracranial findings on CT brain and detection of lesions that need neurosurgical intervention.
