Summary
Using a prospective cohort of children admitted to the PICU, the investigators will determine HRV monitoring is feasible, if a decreased HRV in the 7 days following moderate or severe TBI in children is associated with a worse outcome 6 months post-TBI and investigate HRV as a tool that can predict adverse events (neurological crisis) within 2 days following TBI.
Detailed description
This is a single center prospective cohort study of 15 children \<18 years, admitted to the PICU at the CHU Sainte-Justine (CHUSJ) with moderate or severe TBI (\<24 hours). Neurodevelopment outcome of children will be evaluated 6 months post TBI.
