Head injuries are a common presenting complaint in kids. They can be a source of major concern for parents and clinicians alike. 1-2% of presentations to paediatric emergency services are head injuries of varying severity, although most are minor.

In this episode, we cover the assessment of head injuries and how to decide whether imaging or other investigations are required or not.
