Global Epidemiology of Pediatric Traumatic Brain Injury: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Every year, about 5.4 million children worldwide sustain a TBI. Disparities in the estimated incidence rates of pediatric TBI among countries may represent true differences in frequency or variability in the capacity of health systems to address TBI. Population-level data remain lacking in low-income and lower-middle-income countries.
