- W4315696220 abstract "Background: The objective of this study was to describe pediatric TBI patients presenting to one regional referral hospital in Uganda and identify factors that contribute to unfavorable outcomes.
 Methods: This study was a prospective, observational cohort study conducted at Mbarara Regional Referral Hospital (MRRH). Favorable outcomes were defined as any patient who was either discharged from the hospital or had a Glasgow Outcome Score (GOS) greater or equal to four. Unfavorable outcomes were defined as any patient who died or had a GOS of three or less. Logistic regression was used to determine the factors significantly associated with unfavorable outcomes.
 Results: A total of 560 pediatric TBI patients were included in this study with males making up 65.5% (n=367) of all patients. The main etiology was Road Traffic Accidents (RTA) (n=372, 66.4%) with the majority being injured as pedestrians (n=271, 48.4%). Unfavorable outcomes were associated with bilaterally abnormal pupils (OR 22.39, 2.98-168.11 CI, p-value 0.003), incontinence (OR 19.01, 5.37-67.33 CI, p-value <0.001), need for ICU care (OR 12.17, 5.47-27.08 CI, p-value <0.001), and a severe Glascow Coma Scale (GCS) on admission (OR 11.25, 4.01-31.58 CI, p-value <0.001).
 Conclusion: Demographic characteristics reflected trends seen around the world and highlighted that RTA, specifically involving pediatric patients as pedestrians, is a major driver of pTBI cases. TBI severity on presentation correlated with unfavorable outcomes reinforcing the need for rapid triage protocols and access to the necessary human and physical resources to appropriately manage pTBI." @default.
