The PECARN Pediatric Head Injury/Trauma Algorithm provides the PECARN algorithm for evaluating pediatric head injury.
The Pediatric NEXUS II Head CT Decision Instrument for Blunt Trauma predicts need for head CT after pediatric blunt head injury, similar to PECARN.
Identification of children at very low risk of clinically-important brain injuries after head trauma: a prospective cohort study.
1. Use the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) to determine if the pediatric patient fits the required criteria for evaluation using the PECARN algorithm. The Glasgow Coma Scale is based on a 15 point scale for estimating and categorizing the out-comes of brain injury on the basis of overall social capability or dependence on others. The
We developed the NEXUS Head CT instrument to provide clinicians with a single highly reliable tool they could use to make imaging decisions for all blunt head injury patients. Prior rules, such as PECARN or CHALICE, applied only to specific subgroups of patients, while the inclusion and exclusion criteria of other rules, such as the Canadian ...
Background: The Pediatric Emergency Care Applied Research Network (PECARN) head trauma clinical decision rules informed the development of algorithms that risk stratify the management of children based on their risk of clinically important trau-matic brain injury (ciTBI).
