Abstract

Injury is the leading cause of death for children and adolescents in the United States and most developed countries. Of these deaths, about forty percent are the result of traumatic brain injury (TBI). (Monica S, et al., 2010)Although most pediatric head injuries are mild and involve only evaluation or brief hospital stays, CNS injuries are the most common cause of pediatric traumatic death. (Ward J D., 1996)Single most reliable examination for evaluating the outcome in children less than 3 years of age is ocular examination, as ocular functions are fully developed by two months of age.
